This is a lovely antique Italian sewing case. It measures approximately 16 x 14.5 x 3.5 cm. The outside of the case is finished in a faux red leather covering with a metal clasp to the front. It opens to reveal a blue satin interior which holds a selection of sterling silver sewing tools including a needle case and sewing scissors. The inside of the lid is stamped with the name Giulio Bonomi, Orefice, which translated to English means Goldsmith. The case is a lovely shape and is nicely made. There are signs of use and wear, but overall it's in lovely condition for its age.

I'm now using eco-friendly packaging for all orders including biodegradable brown craft paper tape, biodegradable bubble wrap and void fill packing chips and, where possible, reused boxes. The only thing I've not yet been able to find is eco-friendly clear tape used for attaching shipping labels, so if you're aware of any such thing please let me know where I can find it. I'd love to be able to offer 100% eco-friendly packaging!
