A beautifully detailed antique sterling silver thimble dating to 1905, decorated with an intricate swirling floral pattern. More than 120 years old, this charming sewing collectible has the wonderful character and patina that only comes with genuine age and use.
Fully hallmarked for English sterling silver and dated 1905, the thimble is also marked No. 9 along the lower rim. The embossed floral decoration wraps around the body, creating a beautifully textured design with a distinctly Edwardian feel.
This was clearly a working thimble rather than a piece tucked away untouched. There are several small holes and areas of wear where the silver has worn through from use over time. These condition details are clearly shown in the photographs and are part of the thimble's history.
A lovely piece of antique sewing history for a thimble collector, vintage sewing enthusiast or collector of English sterling silver.
