A hair receiver
A hair receiver is a small pot, with a hole in the lid, kept
on the dressing table in the Victorian era to store hair removed from
brushes and combs. The hair was recycled in a number of ways—notably for
stuffing small bags, about 8–10 centimetres (3–4 in) across, called
ratts, used to bulk out women's hairstyles. Human hair was also used for
stuffing pincushions and small furnishing cushions.
It was often paired with a matching trinket box or a powder jar or as part of a dressing table set, made mainly from porcelain, though glass, metal, and celluloid were also used.
