This is a splendid example of a Bertha collar, which was gathered on to the neckline of a dress, in cream Irish Carrickmacross lace. This lace is part appliqué and part needlework on very fine net. The design is very traditional with sprays of shamrock leaves, ribbon bows and areas of needle weaving.

The collar measures 41 inches on the inner neck edge and 77 inches round the outer edge. The depth of the collar is just over 7 inches. The collar is in good condition but there is a stain on the back which can be seen in the fourth photograph. There is also a tiny hole in the net near the edge at the back.

This is a stunning example of its type and would grace any collection or period costume.
