Rectangular pocket book with flap of white satin and lined with white silk. The front is worked with three leafy stems, bearing roses and strawberries, springing from a vase; and the flap has similar stems and a rosette. The back has two stems with various flowers growing from a leafy device; in the middle is a winged heart and a small bird. Leaves and stems embroidered with coloured silks, chiefly yellow and shades of green, in satin stitch shading, and bows in silver thread. Flowers, winged heart and bird ingeniously executed with natural and shades of red, possibly dyed, straw splints in satin stitch, porcupine quill work (zig zag pattern using contrasting colours of the straw) and wrapping (straw splint wrapped round a length of thread). The outline of the straw motifs is a couched line of a fine two straw plait, probably splints. The edges of the pocket book are bound with a narrow silver braid.
