Brussels and English Honiton bobbin laces both use some very similar motifs, especially the segmented leaf with raised edges, often called a leaf with taps, and the basic little round flowers. We are calling this lace Brussels because of the little needle made insertions in the flower centers, which are more typical of Belgian Brussels lace. Honiton more likely would use little wheatears or petal-shaped tallies in the flower centers. Please click on image to enlarge.
