Fillet or headrest. The body is a rounded, crescent-shaped black-brown leather pad with tapering ends, stuffed with fine golden-brown hair. One tip of the fillet has split, to reveal the hair beneath. A leather thong is attached to the other tip. The leather is particularly watermarked and blackened at one end. The fillet is decorated with three flowerets in red leather decorated with gilding, which have been stitched to the surface. The central flowerest is stitched to a circle of gilt leather. With this object is also the tip of a second fillet decorated with gilt.
