Woman’s(?) black, floor length, a-line, sleeveless dress with standing collar and side closure. Made of heavy, very densely woven wool textile. The left side front overlaps the right side front; it fastens at centre front neckline, then overlaps the right side and fastens under the right armhole with a green plastic button and white fabric loop. The collar, front edge, armholes and hem are faced with strips of off-white silk brocade. Hand stitched. Unlined.
Multicoloured wool blanket, constructed from six narrow (about 23 cm) strips of equal length, aligned side by side, and sewn together edge to edge. Each of these strips is woven in a repeated pattern of narrow horizontal stripes, of black, red and two shades of blue, alternating with wider stripes of off-white and orange-yellow. On the right side of the blanket, the off-white and orange-yellow stripes are over-printed with repeated cross-shaped (+-shaped) motifs in red and dark blue. When sewing the strips together, no attempt was made to align the patterns, resulting in a random design. The reverse side is the same but without the cross motifs. One end of the blanket is bound with bright purple silk jacquard textile; the opposite end is bound with pale pink silk jacquard textile, and at the centre of this end, a small (10 cm) diamond shaped decorative patch made of two squares of patterned silk textile is stitched on.
