Collar

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Beige crocheted collar with lace design and scalloped edges. The collar is semi-circular and appears to be made of a delicate, open-weave fabric. The lace features a floral or leaf-like pattern throughout. Two thin threads or strings are visible at the top of the collar, possibly for tying. The background is solid black. Collar by artist.
