Absolutely 😉 Emily I’m just finishing up my PhD on global material/objects/textiles at Ham House. We should have a chat at some point, I’ve done a fair whack of work on the movement of the Lauderdales‘ Persian (and Turkey work) carpets 🙂

I didn't realise how hot they are on content warnings. I was flagged as a smut peddler for sharing an image of a seventeenth-century wooden appendage, which was shared in the spirit of education (and a pinch of childishness).
