介绍（中）	这个弩箭是专门为携带英格兰大印而制作的。它的历史可以追溯到 18 世纪上半叶，带有国王乔治一世（1714-27 年在位）的徽章。该设计可能起源于 17 世纪初，几乎相同格式的 burs 出现在 19 世纪英格兰大法官的肖像中。现存最早的例子可以追溯到查理一世（1625-49年在位）时代。这件作品使用了几种类型的金属线，加上彩色丝绸、凸圆形石榴石和珍珠。徽章由两只错综复杂的野兽支撑，一只狮子和一只独角兽，它们被基路伯包围。这款包有一个使用丝绸和金属线绳索的抽绳开合，并以流苏结束;四个较大的流苏装饰底部。英国国王传统上雇用刺绣师，负责组织国王及其宫廷要求的刺绣项目。他的任务包括向国王展示设计、采购物资和执行实际工作。刺绣师装饰了家具和服装，以及马饰和仪式装饰。对于大型项目，例如准备国家职能，他将不得不雇用额外的工人来协助他为参与者提供横幅、悬挂和制服等装饰品。
介绍（英）	This burse was specifically made to carry the Great Seal of England. It dates to the first quarter of the eighteenth century and bears the coat of arms of King George I (r. 1714–27). The design probably originated during the early seventeenth century and burses of nearly identical format appear in portraits of the Lord High Chancellors of England well into the nineteenth century. The earliest extant example dates from the time of Charles I (r. 1625–49). Several types of metal threads, plus colored silks, cabochon garnets, and pearls, were used in the creation of this piece. The coat of arms is supported by two intricately detailed beasts, a lion and a unicorn, and these are surrounded by cherubim. The bag has a drawstring closure using cords of silk and metal thread and ending in tassels; four larger tassels decorate the bottom. The king of England traditionally employed an embroiderer, responsible for organizing embroidery projects required by the king and his court. His tasks included presenting designs to the king, procuring supplies, and performing the actual work. The embroiderer decorated both furnishings and costume, as well as horse trappings and ceremonial decorations. For large projects, such as the preparation for a state function, he would have to hire additional workers to assist him with decorations like banners, hangings, and uniforms for the participants.
