The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Beige lace collar with intricate floral patterns and scalloped edges. The collar is semi-circular in shape, with a curved bottom edge and two pointed ends at the top. The lace is made of a lightweight, semi-transparent material, possibly cotton or linen. The floral patterns are woven throughout the lace, with a repeating design of interconnected flowers and leaves. The edges of the collar feature a scalloped design, with a series of small, curved indentations. The background of the image is solid black. The title of the piece is "Collar".
