1920's Silk Needle Case Hand Crochet Flowers
Oh So Lovely!
This is a Beauty. It's in Wonderful Condition for it's buying age.
The colors are soft and feminine.
I Love the Beautiful Pink Ruffled Center Accent with the Hand Crochet Light And Dark Pink Flowers and Tiny Green Silk Leaves.
The Edges of the Case are also Lovely, trimmed with a Continuous Chain of Handmade White Silk Ribbon Work Flowers.
The Case is Lightly Stuffed with a Cotton fabric.
There are no openings inside the case. This case was meant to be used to store sewing needles and pins, and one would have pinned the needles and pins on a piece of Muslin or Cotton that would have been attached to the inside of the case. The pins and needles would be placed on the fabric piece in groups of like sizes and kinds.
The muslin or cotton fabric piece in no longer present on this case.
While this Lovely Piece is in Wonderful Condition, there are some small issues due to age, use, and the delicate nature of the silk fabric.
There are a couple of very small and very light stains that are barely visible on the front, inside, and back, and one teeny tiny little black dot on the edge of the pink ruffle that is a bit more visible, but certainly nothing bad. There are also a few small slits in the silk in various places, front, inside, and back, and also some pulls in the silk fabric due to needles being inserted. The stitching that holds the ruffled pink center piece on to the case is loosened on one area as well and if you are handy with a needle and thread could be easily repaired. These flaws are minimal and to be expected due to the age and use of this piece. It is still a Very Lovely Piece, but Do Be Aware Of The Fact That This Piece Is Very Old And NOT PERFECT before you purchase it.
Closed Case - 5 1/4" square - Opened Case - 10"L
A Beautiful Piece to Add to your Collection, or to Display in your Sewing or Craft Room, or to Give As a Lovely Gift For Her.
