Raised needle lace maniple, 1670-95, Italian, mounted on red silk. Maniple of raised needle lace mounted on slightly watered plain woven red silk. It is straight and narrow along its length and widens at the ends. The pattern is the typical scrolling floral pattern of Venetian raised needle lace. It is likely that the lace was mounted onto the red silk ground shortly before its purchase by the Museum in 1870, and the cross at each end, and in the centre, together with the edging and fringe, were probably 19th century additions attached at the same time. The narrow outer edging matches that on the other pieces of the set, and is also likely to be 19th century. Some raised details and picots may also have been added. Needle lace worked in linen thread, and mounted on silk.
