The bottom edge is decorated with a series of scallops, each filled with a roundel consisting of a serrated leaf above a lobed flower. The pattern is worked in solid cloth stitch with decorative fillings of honey-comb and half-stitch work. A thick silk gimp thread is used to outline the pattern.\n\nNarrow flounce, possibly a bonnet veil by a later addition of a decorative border at each end."@en .
