Facebook ad from The Radical Tea Towel Company: Literary tea towels (pointy finger emoji) radicalteatowel.co.uk/tea-towels/literary-figures British-made tea towels inspired by radical history, literature and philosophy (pointy finger emoji) radicalteatowel.co.uk/tea-towels/ The tea towel pictured shows two women, both wearing dark Gothic cloaks and dresses against a grey cloudy backdrop. In the top left is a quite: “For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather.” The caption in the bottom left reads: Christina Rossetti. (From “Goblin Market.” There is no sign in the picture of Goblins or fruit.
I have read the comments and can confirm: though many of them seem to have sisters, none of them have actually read Goblin Market.

Will never hurt your hand;
But the rose upon her briar
Is lady of the land.”
