cushion:
10.1cm square

This padded cushion is made of red velvet, with a Grant silk picture on the front.

There is no makers name on the cushion, although it is confirmed that the silk picture was woven by Grant, as it is identical to the image used on the picture from the exhibition, titled A Present from the International Exhibition, Edinburgh 1886 [recorded as gt24 on this site].
