Hello,
I was
wondering if you could help me identify the following objects (please see the
attached photographs):
1) Stone set in gold. We are trying to find what
it is and when it dates from.
2) Woollen face cloth - we want to identify a
date/use and it would be helpful to know if there is a modern
name for this fabric.
Any help with identification would be greatly appreciated.
Please send replies to:
