bannerette

The old man flourished the flat kid like a bannerette, whilst he arranged the fire.

On the election-day, a year or so afterwards, the burgesses of Cardiff smiled to see him driving through the streets in a motor from which flew a bannerette recommending them to "Vote for Daddy!"

A bannerette of crimson cross-stitch, on which was worked a cluster of steel-bead roses, hung pendant from a brass rod; the water-colour paintings on the walls were encircled by large white mounts; the drab carpet was garlanded with flowers; in the air was the sweet, somewhat musty flavour of potpourri.

There was also a framed picture of “The House”; a tambourine painted with purple iris by Miss Isabel’s own hands; an old bannerette in cross-stitch pendent from the mantelpiece, a collection of paper mats, shaded from orange to white, the glass-covered vase of wax flowers which had attracted Ron’s notice, one or two cheap china vases, a pot of musk placed diametrically in the centre of a wicker table, a sofa, and two “occasional chairs” gorgeously upholstered in red satin and green plush.
