Bartolomeo Danieli was a lacemaker who learned to engrave specifically in order to print his patterns. His book, _Vari disegni di merletti_ has a bit of a different style. I’ve linked the 1639 version, but the first edition came out in 1610. The Met has a flounce they’ve identified as in the style of Danieli. It’s not an exact match, but does have pomegranates and urns similar to those in some of his patterns. There’s also a section with heraldry of the Pallavincini family done in lace, which is interesting. https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/348344
