This first book-length study of the tie-on pocket combines materiality and gender to provide new insight into the social history of women's everyday lives-from duchesses and country gentry to prostitutes and washerwomen-and explore their consumption practices, work, sociability, mobility, privacy, and identity. The authors draw on an unprecedented study of surviving pockets in museums and private collections to identify their materials, techniques, and decoration; their use is investigated through sources as diverse as criminal trials, letters, diaries, inventories, novels, and advertisements. Richly illustrated with paintings, satirical prints, and photographs of artifacts in detail, this innovative book reveals the unexpected story of these deeply evocative and personal objects. 650 0 $a Women $z Great Britain $x Social conditions $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Women $z Great Britain $x Social conditions $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Pockets. 650 0 $a Dress accessories $z Great Britain $x History $y 17th century. 650 0 $a Dress accessories $z Great Britain $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Dress accessories $z Great Britain $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Women's clothing $z Great Britain $x History $y 17th century. 650 0 $a Women's clothing $z Great Britain $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Women's clothing $z Great Britain $x History $y 19th century. 700 1 $a Fennetaux, Ariane, $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230902014314.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=90CCC1A4495811EE9228709642ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
