Daffodil

In the history of textiles, no small square of fabric has had such an important or varied use as the white handkerchief.

Other than its well-known functions of wiping the nose or blotting away tears, it can be used as a head covering, waved to attract attention or indicate surrender, or tied to protect from dust or smoke.

This superb example is worked onto fine white linen and decorated at one corner with a spectacular daffodil worked in Aemilia Ars, making it an ideal gift for a bride or the perfect pocket square for a smart suit.
