Needlepoint (Burano Point) Lace Flounce

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a piece of lace with a floral design. The lace is rectangular and made of white thread on a black background. The lace has a scalloped edge along the bottom. The top edge of the lace has a thin white trim with a twisted cord or tie in the center. The floral design features flowers, leaves and stems, with some areas of the lace being more densely woven than others. The flowers have multiple petals and are scattered across the lace. The leaves are teardrop-shaped and vary in size. The stems are curved and intertwined with the flowers and leaves. The background of the image is solid black. The lace appears to be a piece of "Needlepoint (Burano Point) Lace Flounce" by an unknown artist.
