British Galleries: This purse is formed of four shield-shaped panels, each carrying coats of arms showing the arms of a husband (left) with those of his wife (right). The purse emphasises that the marriage of Sir Henry Parker (died before 1553) and Elizabeth Calthorpe was an important alliance similar to those of earlier generations of the family, represented on the other panels. [27/03/2003] Arms of the Calthorpe family Four panels in a shield shape, each embroidered in silk in tent stitch on linen. It is decorated on all four sides with marshalled arms recording family alliances. <b>Object Type</b><br>This formal, heraldic purse associated with marriage has more significance than a purse used simply for money, or a 'swete-bag' used for carrying perfumed herbs to sweeten the atmosphere. Both men and women carried or wore pouches or purses. The long strings of this example suggest that it was intended to hang from the waist, but it is uncertain whether it was ever actually used as a container. English purses of this date are extremely rare and the survival of this one may be due to its formal role, which meant that it was rarely used and thought worth looking after.<br><br><b>Makers & Making</b><br>The workmanship of this purse is extremely fine with 1,250 silk stitches per square inch (194 per square centimetre). Most surviving canvas work is much coarser. Whether this suggests that a professional hand was involved or that the woman who made this was particularly skilled is not known.<br><br><b>Ownership & Use</b><br>Heraldic devices were displayed in many different ways, and their use on even small personal belongings such as this little purse indicates the important role that they had in proclaiming ownership and lineage. The heraldry on this purse reflects four marriages (that is, four family alliances), culminating in that of Sir Henry Parker and Elizabeth Calthorpe. This shows the significance attached to the family 'pedigree' by the parties involved.
