Seller's description

CHARMING antique Victorian hand embroidered box and English silver thimble.
This is very cute , the box had royal purple velvet covering but over time it has worn down just leaving the very pretty hand embroidery. It is a metal box with cloth covering. The thimble most likely not original to the box is a bit later dated Chester for 1907 by silver smiths Henry Griffith and sons.
The thimble is beautifully hallmarked, it has a small hole on the back as shown in the image, however it is lovely and did come with the sweet little Victorian thimble box.
The box measures about 1.5 inches by 1 inch and stands about .75 inches high, it snaps shut and despite the worn velvet it is decorative with the sweet embroidery being in wonderful condition.
Enjoy adding this little box and thimble to your antique sewing-needlework tools collection!
