Swatches of tweed bound inside a rectangular shaped book covered in red imitation leather (coated fabric). The front cover is decorated with a faint gold printed border, the words 'Royal Wessex pure wool worsted' There is a code on the binding which reads T282 and the companies contact details are on the reverse. The left sides of the swatches appear to have been embedded in adhesive. On the end of the binding is a hanging loop made from yellow twisted rope.
Each fabric has a retangular shaped stain in the upper right corner where labels once were.
The swatches consist of striped, checked and plain fabrics in various colours and have three pinked edges.
