Beautiful linen mantle with lace insertions and edgings, and gorgeous tassels. It is probably a dressing cape intended to be worn while getting ready. Dated between 1630-1639. At the Fries Museum, object T01194. The search term “schouderkraag” will pull it up. https://collectie.friesmuseum.nl/?diw-id=tresoar_friesmuseum_T01194
Interesting floral shapes in the edging similar the the designs of Bartolomeo Danieli’s 1639 _Vari disegni di merletti_ (I’m still looking for more of Daniel’s books. He published 5, but I have only seen Lotz #148 and 149.) http://badigit.comune.bologna.it/books/pizzi/scorri_big.asp?direction=prev&ID=14
