| Artist | Unknown |
| Date | 19th century |
| Descriptive Notes | Wolfe and Miura: Turkish on Stormont
This pattern is created when first a Stormont pattern is completed, then like in a Turkish pattern, color(s) would be sprinkled onto the bath, causing the Stormont pattern to become the veins.
The primary colors for this example are blue, red and black.

| Collection Notes | The flat sample from which this photo was scanned is a salvaged endsheet. There is no record of the original item from which these endsheets were taken. Information regarding creation dates has therefore been estimated (using Wolfe), typically by century.
