Rectangular piece of lace, wider than it is tall, with a repeating floral and leaf design throughout. The lace features a Point de France style, with intricate white floral patterns on a black background. The design includes curved leaves and teardrop shaped flowers. The edges are roughly cut and not scalloped or finished. The lace appears to be a Fragment of Needlepoint lace flounce by an unknown artist.
