notes: label: Description (Brief)
content: This needle lace collar was made in the early 20th Century. The rose motifs and outside scallops are outlined with horsehair, which is covered with buttonhole stitches. It is of fine quality, but has a small tear at the center neck edge. According to the donor the collar was made in Denmark, but Denmark does not have a needle lace tradition for that type of needle lace. However, it might have been bought there.
