A 2014 article by Brian Lemin with Diana Smith examining a carved bone "Mother and Babe" lace bobbin, sold on eBay, whose floating figure is said to depict Admiral Nelson and which was offered as the work of a French Napoleonic prisoner of war. Lemin reviews evidence that French prisoners in British camps such as Portchester and Norman Cross made lace, bone crafts and possibly bobbins, compares decoration on bobbins, a PoW whistle and teething rings, and weighs the bobbin's origin. He concludes it is most likely a naval Napoleonic PoW carving, with a British naval or general hand-carved bobbin as alternatives. The article ends with web references and excerpts on PoW camps and machine lace.
