A horizontally long garniture of light gray linen bobbin lace features an open-worked texture. Mirrored foliage and dense floral clusters wind outward from a symmetrical center. One long edge is straight, while the opposite side is finished with a delicate, scalloped border. Intricate blossoms and detailed leaves sprout across the entire length, creating a balanced and ornate pattern throughout the textile.
