Antique
Carved Compendium / Sewing Kit

German
* Circa
1900
This useful
compendium combines a needle
case, thimble holder and bobbins of thread and has nicely detailed
carving. The color, grain and patina of the wood are gorgeous.
The
condition is excellent with no chips, cracks or other damage and it
measures 5 1/2″ high.
The thimble
has a pretty scrolling band and a rope style rim. It tests 800/1000
pure solid silver. It has a rubbed mark on the side. The top has the 8
petaled flower/star
design used by several German thimble makers. There is a fine split
around the edge of the top that looks to be where it wasn’t soldered
properly rather than needle damage. It’s about an American size 9.
This
style of wooden needlework item was carved
in the Black Forest area of Germany at the end of the 19th century and
sold as souvenirs.

I stand behind
everything that I offer and guarantee that it is exactly as
presented.

Silver Sewing Set

French
* Circa 1900
This
little
French set has an oval leather case and inside the fitted
interior are a pair of silver handled
scissors, a silver needle case and a silver thimble. They have a
scallop shell design and all are marked with
the French boar’s head hallmark used for 800/1000 pure silver from
1838. The
scissors have tight blades, sharp points and cut well. They are
3 5/8″ long and are marked
“Nogent” which is the city
in France where
they were made. This is a famous cutlery region and the makers that
passed stringent quality requirements could belong to the guild and use
this mark.
The thimble
is in excellent
condition, crisp and in
round
with no holes, wear or other damage. It’s about an American size 6
and is gilded inside. The needle case has no dents or damage and fits
together well. The
little leather case is lined in the original velvet and silk and is in
great
condition
inside and out. It measures 5 1/8 x 3″ and snaps closed
properly with a push button catch.

Antique
Rosewood Workbox
& Tools

English
*
Circa 1880

This lovely
old rosewood workbox has a lift
out
tray with fitted recesses for the tools.
The
compartment below is for threads and
projects and is lined with patterned paper. The bottom area contains 2
perforated floral embroidery patterns, a cow bone tatting shuttle and
some embroidery silks. The tool tray has a matching set of mother of
pearl tools, steel scissors, a built in pin cushion, thread spools, a
packet of hooks and eyes, 2 needle packets and a sterling silver
thimble.
The
mother of pearl tools include a stiletto, button hook, pen knife,
corkscrew and tweezers. They are all in great condition with no damage.
The steel scissors are nice ones with faceted bows. They have tight
blades, intact points and cut, but could use sharpening. The English
thimble has a faceted rim and a hand engraved leaf design on the wide
band. It is not marked but tests sterling silver. English
silversmiths
didn’t mark small items (and have to pay duty on them) until required
to by law in the 1880s. It is in nice condition with no holes or
repairs and is about an American size 8.
The work box
is in excellent condition. The
top has
some minor fine surface crackles in the veneer, but the box had no
cracks, chips, loss or other damage. The tray has been relined with
plush fabric, but is well done. The hinges are strong and it has the
original, working key. It
measures 9 7/8″
wide by 6 5/8″ deep by 3 7/8″ tall.
