Lace pattern with four designs for borders with corners.
Designo number 34 is for a bobbin-made copy of cutwork as in T.164-1985.
Designo MASSIMILIANO for bobbin lace in torchon style. The simple pattern of squares and diamonds was probably defined by a thick outlining thread, possibly with half stitch or cloth stitch fillings.
Designo number 33 for bobbin lace edging with outer vandyked points decorated with wheat ears, and the centre of the main border is filled with clothwork squares with a decorative mesh, alternating with large spider motifs within a circle.
Designo number 15 is a scalloped border with a clothwork heading on the inner side and a pattern worked entirely in either narrow clothwork tapes or plaited tapes and punctuated by large ovals either filled with clothwork or left voided. The outer points of the scallops are decorated with picots.
The sheet is printed in black on green paper, and labelled 'Scuola Coop. Brazza proprieta Artistica Riservata'.
