Oh GREAT shout. Thank you! @cjfaraday.bsky.social if you think you might be able to help I would be so grateful! Can send you a message not on BlueSky if that's easier

Thank you! Can I message you? I'm looking at a textile, so not sure if that's relevant to you!

That would be a delight though I think she is probably far too busy for this!

I've only listened to a few episodes but I'll check out the back catalogue. Thank you!

Would anyone be able to recommend a person who is knowledgeable about Queen Elizabeth I and symbolism? Researching an object with a lot of funky motifs and I feel like I would be having an easier time if I knew more of the nuances around the queen's chosen iconography. Thank you!

Sorry for my massive delay! Yes, that is what I determined it to be, at least I think so! Thank you so much!

Isabella Rosner @isabellarosner.bsky.social · 10/07/2026

I have not but it has been on my to-visit list for a very long time!

That's a good idea. I haven't talked to her about caskets and cabinets for a few years. This is a great reason to get back in touch. Thank you!

Thank you! The iconography I don't think matches how Henrietta Maria and Charles I are depicted in stitch, but I think Queen Esther could be a fruitful avenue to go down so I will look into that. Thank you so much!

I feel pretty confident they’re biblical. The front shows Solomon and Sheba and the back (pictured here) shows I think either the journey to Bethlehem or the flight into Egypt

There are three panels with figures wearing similar dress (specifically the bearded man and the woman). I’m used to embroideries from this periods having figures wearing different dress on different panels. Sorry for the lack of alt text — I forgot about it since I haven’t been here in a few months!

That is so interesting! Thank you! I will pursue it being tied to Rachel

I visited Chanakya, the atelier that's the focus of this article, in January and was absolutely amazed by the expertise of these embroiderers. It was a huge privilege to see them at work!

Making a rare appearance on here to ask for thoughts on an embroidery from 1668. Do you have any idea what Old Testament story/stories these panels represent? Previously labeled as Abraham and Isaac but I’m not convinced. I think they may be the same figures in both. Thank you for your ideas!

Hello! So sorry for my delay! You are correct. Would say 1820s approx!

It is John, yes! This is from a London record. Thanks for your help!

I’ve not read this but I will! Seth is a delight and I love his work. So lucky to have gotten to interview him!
