Details
A pair of silk handscreens woven with views of The 1862 Exhibition within shields with the heraldic arms of the exhibitors, possibly by Stevens, Coventry, with carved ivory sticks - 19.5in., 1862
Probably a Souvenir. Although three professional ivory turners, J. C. Azemair of Croydon, T. R. Dutton of Shoreditch and Charles Payne of Nailsworth exhibited at the International along with a couple of amateurs and a handful of turning machine makers, no Coventry ribbon weavers were represented there
