Notes "A bertha collar is a very wide circular collar, and this one is a beautiful example of Brussels Duchesse lace technique. There are two lace techniques in the collar. Needlepoint lace (Point de Gaze) is made with a needle, and there are five floral medallions with raised petals mounted on machine-made net. Flowers, leaves and scrolls made with bobbins are featured design motifs. Some of the leaves have raised edges made with bundles of thread. Although the maker is unknown, the variation in the leaves shows that more than one maker was involved. At some stage of the process the medallions and bobbin motifs, made by many outworkers, were joined together using plaits and picots, the little loops, on the inner and outer edges. I enjoy looking at this collar because of the many techniques and design features it displays. I can also appreciate the skills of all the designers and lace makers involved with its creation."
