$295.00 

Beautiful antique strawwork needle case. Work of this type was done by prisoners of war using dyed pieces of straw over a wooden shape. Many of these pieces have had their colors faded over the years, but this one has been well cared for, and is both bright and well designed. Tassels on each end give the case an interesting, and unusual touch. C. 1820.

Condition: Fine.

Size: Length- 3 7/8 inches.

Sold. Thank you 

This is a very lovely carved mother of pearl needle case. On the front is the design of an enamel and gold pansy that was the symbol of the Palais Royale, a fancy area of shops near the Louvre in Paris. The piece dates to the early 19th century and has a beautiful rich color to the mother of pearl.

Condition: Overall fine. Very tiny edge chip on inside tongue, and small stress lines. Outside perfect.

Size: length- 3 1/8 inches
