Separate Pocket from Russia
The collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London includes a pocket that dates to the early nineteenth century and was made in Russia. The ground material is made of linen and silk, sewn by hand with silk and linen, and embroidered with silk thread. It was acquired for the V&A in 1907, perhaps together with the towel end with bobbin lace.
