Fig. 10.—SCALLOPPED COLLAR OF TAPE-LIKE
PILLOW-MADE LACE.

Possibly of English early 17th-century work. Its texture is
  typical of a development in pillow-lace-making later than that
of the lower edge of “merletti a piombini” in Pl. II. fig. 3.  

Fig. 12.—JABOT OF NEEDLEPOINT LACE WORKED
PARTLY IN RELIEF, AND USUALLY KNOWN AS
“GROS POINT DE VENISE.”

Middle of 17th century. Conventional scrolling stems with off-
shooting pseudo-blossoms and leafs are specially characteristic.
