Border of silver bobbin lace grounded with a large square twist net mesh and decorated with a geometric design of diamond shapes formed of lines of touching circles. Below the diamonds, solid fan shapes form a gently-scalloped lower edge. The touching circles are formed with a double gimp thread and are filled with wheat-ears which are also used to fill the centres of the diamonds, radiating from a central large spangle. The fan-shapes are in cloth stitch with half-stitch surround. Smaller spangles decorate the square mesh. The lace is worked with a fine metal thread of silver strip wrapped round a white silk core. A much thicker thread of the same type is used for the gimp. Flat metal strip is used for the solid triangles and along the top edge. The spangles are of split flattened rings. The lace could have been used either for furnishing or for a dress.
