Default Cloth items of unknown origin

Dear all,

Any identification of the items in the attached scans would be appreciated.

The brown/orange diamonds are printed, @3.5cm x 4.5cm.

The woven badge I found on a market this morning, and initially I thought (wrongly) it to be Polish. It is a sort of Brabant weave on a felt backing, 5.5cm x 7.25cm. The hooks to reverse are marked DEPOSE. I'm now thinking French or Belgian.

Many thanks, Stephen.

After a long time I'm giving these a bump. The printed diamonds remain unidentified and I'm hoping some of the more recent forum members may know what they are.

Thanks for looking. Stephen.
