Bronze Age Gold from Wales

Bedcover

A pink and yellow coloured bedspread/quilt, manufactured at the woollen mill in Tanygrisiau. It is believed that it was manufactured during the late 19th century / early 20the century. The bedspread was owned by Elen Ellis Jones (donor’s grandmother) who was born in 1890, and lived at ‘Rhos y Llyn’, Ffestiniog. The bedspread/quilt was passed down through the family, and Jean Patrick decided to donate it to NSM. As the bedspread/quilt was manufactured at the old woollen mill in Tanygrisiau (now closed) it will be displayed in Fron Haul.
