I thought these cuffs were interesting. It’s one of the few uses I’ve seen of the wider bobbin laces like those in Mignerak and Parasol used as cuffs. The lace of her ruff is also gorgeous. Portrait d’un Couple, dated 1610. Held in the Louvre. It is currently listed as anonymous French School, but is thought to possibly be by Francois Quesnel https://collections.louvre.fr/en/ark:/53355/cl010065399
