This attractive antique silver thimble was hallmarked in Birmingham in 1906 by James Fenton.

1906 was quite a year. There was a heatwave, Swansea experienced an earthquake, there were rail crashes in Salisbury and Grantham, London Underground opened both the Bakerloo Line and the Piccadilly Line and the first International rugby match was played. ( England beat France 25-8)

The thimble is stylishly decorated with a repeated dot indentation design, lovely to think how many different sewing projects it has been part of in its lifetime......

It is in good condition with a lovely hallmark, treasured by someone for many years.  A lovely gift for a keen needle-person, or a lover of exquisite small objects.

It measures 2.6 cm tall, with an inner diameter of 1.9 cm.

It has been cleaned in a jewellers ultrasonic bath to bring out the best of this mini work of art.
