The main theme of this handcraft is roses. The craft has roses in silver and red roses and of course there are beautiful silver coloured lace. The wooden frame is in oval shape.
This theme is featured in a catholic christmas carrol:

Maria durch ein'n Dornwald ging,
Der hat in sieb'n Jahr kein Laub getragen.
Jesus und Maria.
Was trug Maria unter ihrem Herzen?
Kyrieleison!
Ein kleines Kindlein ohne Schmerzen,
Das trug Maria unterm Herzen!
Jesus und Maria.
Da hab'n die Dornen Rosen getragen,
Kyrieleison!

Translated the first two verses mean the following: Mary walking through a forest of thorns, the forest did not have leaves for seven yeas. Mary was pregnant, and when walking the forest the roses started to bloom.
