An article by Jenny Schneider on 18th-century Swiss wall-pockets (comb-pockets) from the Engadine in the canton of Grisons. It describes examples in the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Swiss National Museum in Zurich, with their black taffeta grounds, polychrome silk satin-stitch embroidery, allegorical Virtue figures, carnations and other flowers, and the likely print sources. It also covers related Engadine costume pieces such as a stomacher and a triangular kerchief, and is illustrated with seven plates.
