Piece of six strips of fine linen batist with five intermediatepositions of natural Dutch bobbin lace. The rag has a rectangular model. The lace has a pattern that consists of vertical straight lines, between which there are two stylized flowers, which are mirrored along the longitudinal axis. On the center line, the flowers are flanked left and right by a lying pointed oval, which always crosses the vertical line. The full-work in linen cut with cutouts is held together by short braids. On four of the strips of batist embroidery lines are drawn with pencil, for the embroidery of nineteenth century stylized leaf and floral motifs and two pointed oval cartouches. To the left and right next to one of the cartouches, the years 1880 and 1950 are written above the flowers. On one strip the embroidery is finished, on the strip above it has started with one flower, which is crowned with the also embroidered year 1880. With the other flowers and cartouches, the embroidery did not start. Through the middle of the middle strip of lace, a red thread has been brought in thread stitch and at right angles to this line, remnants of a red thread can also be seen in the middle line of the rag. The top and bottom of the rag are finished with a hem, the sides are not finished. In one of the cartouches are the initials IZR, they are the initials of Iuud Zweers-Roelvink, she was the girlfriend of Mrs Pierson-Muysken, who started with the embroidery.
