Summary
Two pieces of crewel work.
Provenance
memo dated March 1978 from GM Trinick to M Briggs - "In this box are two pieces of needlework given to us by Lady Roborough for Killerton. Warren has suggested that they should be kept at Cotehele since this is the sort of house where people interested in needlework come - and she has agreed. Would you therefore show them to the next interested expert and ask for them to be dated - and then let Lady Roborough know with copy to Warren and me so that honour will be seen to have been done".
