Hi Devon: Iâve taken a look at this weird little thing in extreme closeup. If itâs a decoration it is odd that it is completely plain. I am struck by the fact that it is in line with the pricking, and it covers the space between the top of the pricking and the drawer opening, and I wonder if it could be just a piece of cloth (itâs not black, more of a dark green, maybe a piece of velvet?) meant to cover the completed lace from the time it leaves the pricking until it reaches the safety of the little drawer.
