A 1532 German pattern book by Peter Quentel, printed in Cologne for engravers, embroiderers and women needle workers, offering stylised designs for needlework and lace. The four pages show horizontal bands of woodcut strapwork: beasts and birds among vines in the top row, scrolling acanthus leaves, rosettes and pendant cartouches, and symmetrical vase and volute friezes; a designer might borrow the framed band format, the mirrored scroll symmetry and the dense black-on-white interlacing for borders, trims and surface patterns.
