A review article from the Burlington Magazine (1912) of E. Van Overloop's plate book on the lace collection of the Royal Museums of Decorative and Industrial Arts in Brussels. It surveys the Brabant, Flanders, Mechlin, Binche, Valenciennes and Brussels laces illustrated, and notes filet, whitework embroidery and plaited edgings. It singles out the 1599 Ommeganck coverlet and the 1708 bobbin lace commemorating Charles VI's marriage. Two plates show details of Flanders lace (1670), Brussels bobbin lace (1599) and Brussels bobbin lace (1708).
