Obverse description The obverse features a detailed central motif depicting the intricate pattern of St. Mary lace from the island of Hvar, rendered in high relief and distinguished by its construction from a single continuous unbroken thread — a hallmark of this UNESCO-recognized craft.

Reverse description The reverse displays a stylized artistic composition juxtaposing three distinct regional lace traditions of Croatia: the needle lace of Pag, the bobbin lace of Lepoglava, and the agave-fiber lace of Hvar, each rendered with individual geometric and organic patterning characteristic of their respective techniques and materials. The inscription ČIPKARSTVO U HRVATSKOJ, meaning 'Lace-making in Croatia', is positioned prominently within the field, referencing the collective UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage designation shared by these traditions.
