"Female Preservative"

Cotton fibers
12" (30.5 cm) square

These curious objects were collected and framed by a nurse who worked in South Africa in the 1980s. They may be older, but there is no way to be certain. I took them out of the frame and glass for the photograph; please see the incription in Dutch on the cardboard backing.
