Physical Description

A piece of crochet beading, possibly intended for a bag. The piece is a nine-sided shape worked with beads in pastel colours. It was commenced by the donor immediately prior to World War I. During the war, women spent leisure time making articles for the Armed Forces and working with the Red Cross, so this 'luxury' piece was not completed.
