Antique thimble made of silver with embossed details and a red glass cabochon. Circa 1960.
Decorative thimbles were highly prized among ladies who enjoyed sewing during the 19th and 20th centuries. Beyond their practical use, they became collector's items and gifts. This thimble stands out for its ornamental work with leaves and garlands, and the small red cabochon that adds a jewel-like touch. The interior is smooth, with a pearly edge at both ends.
