Bobbin lace narrow collar for a high, round necked dress and a pair of matching, crescent-shaped cuffs for narrow wrists. They have a delicate design of three interlaced ribbons which form scalloped lower edges with 'oval' departments filled with flowers. Finely worked in cloth stitch with raised, bobbin-woven outlines and wheat-ears used as decorative fillings, linked by brides picotées.
