In order to combat the unpleasant odors emanating from open sewers, insufficiently bathed neighbors, and, from time to time, the bodies of plague victims, a variety of perfumed goods such as fans, handkerchiefs, gloves, and “sweet bags” were available for purchase. The tradition of offering embroidered sweet bags containing gifts of small scented objects, herbs, or money began in the mid-sixteenth century. Typically, they are about five inches square with a drawstring closure at the top and two to three covered drops at the bottom. Economical housewives could even create their own perfumed mixtures to put inside. A 1621 recipe “to make sweete bags with little cost” reads: Take the buttons of Roses dryed and watered with Rosewater three or foure times put them Muske powder of cloves Sinamon and a little mace mingle the roses and them together and putt them in little bags of Linnen with Powder. The present object has recently been identified as a rare surviving example of a large-format sweet bag, sometimes referred to as a “sachet.” Lined with blue silk taffeta, the verso of the central canvas section contains two flat slit pockets, opening on the long side, into which sprigs of herbs or sachets filled with perfumed powders could be slipped to scent a wardrobe or chest.

  • Persian Cloud Collar Research TH Lady Miriam Bat Shimeon Kingdom of Lochac, 2015
    Persian Cloud Collar research TH Lady Miriam bat Shimeon Kingdom of Lochac, 2015. A quick word from the researcher During my studies of the Middle East I created my blog, where I posted whatever item that interested me. This included publicising other Scadian’s research and blogs and have made friends and learnt much. In more recent times I had focussed on Mamluk ruled Egypt, which covered the 13th to 16th centuries. There has been much that had kept me busy but no Empire or country can be studied as a single entity. They were as influenced by their times and neighbours as we are today. So I have forayed into researching a little of the Ottoman and Persian Empires. So much information can be found! However, I had become curious about the Persian cloud collar. Having studied how embroidery was used to decorate Egyptian clothes, I could not help but wonder about how the Persian did it too. So I put aside my Egyptian research (not completely!) and started on Persian cloud collars. For this I must thank all other Scadians that have researched before me- your research was my base from which I could start from. Please check out the bibliography at the end for a full listing. I must also thank my husband for drawing up for me what I requested. He has the ability to draw what I struggled with. Having hit upon the hurdle of very few extant pieces, I have studied what I could but started grabbing pictures of cloud collars from Timurid and Safavid Persia.

Unfortunately, this is not an unmixed blessing. Products are constantly being improved, but designs are complicated, quality is vari¬ able, and good advice is hard to get. Modern stores and merchandising bring you a wide variety of products; but the large number of choices and the lack of dependable infor¬ mation often make shopping a confusing and frustrating experience.
