Who made these silks? As well as the records for identified weavers, there are a number of images that have not been identified to specific makers. I have included many of these in a seperate section. Several have already been identified, and recorded accordingly, whilst others have been identified as of foreign manufacture and removed. Can you help identify who made any of the remaining ones?
Here are the details of the silk bookmarks, postcards and pictures so far included. Can you help?
