The meshes are of fine carved mother-of-pearl, richly inlaid with wreaths of flowers in pure gold; the monogram and coronet carved on the centre one. The body is of the finest Brussels lace expressly designed, and the workmanship, as well as the lace of the (unjewelled) fac simile now before us, is truly exquisite".
