Square veil of blond silk bobbin lace, probably from Caen or Bayeux. The pattern is worked in cloth stitch with some half-stitch and honeycomb fillings, and with decorative openings. The outlines are in a glossy silk thread. The ground is of simple twist net. The edges are scalloped and each scallop contains the flower head of a curving spray composed of large flower head, large curved leaf and a spray of smaller flowers. The centre of the veil is covered with rows of leaves.
