Pomanders were made by the Apothecary for people to carry with them in towns. In Medieval and Tudor times people believed it was the "bad smells" that made them ill (and there were plenty of bad smells about!) so they carried "good smells" to protect them. Pomander Beads were made from a mixture of sweet smelling herbs and spices, and made into a hard ball with a gum. | Repinned by @drbrunogallo Pomander Balls, Giovanni Boldini, Tudor Era, Medieval Life, Tudor History, Art Details, Henry Viii, The Tudors, English History
