11.5cm square

Comments:
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 was woven by Grant, as it reproduces many of the features of the bookmark gb2140 - Souvenir of the Worlds Columbian Exposition 1893 Chicago / Landing of Columbus Oct 12 1492, and that is confirmed as being of GRANT manufacture.
