Victorian Needlework Case

Drool, drool, drool... I love seeing things like that. Pratical but posh....

It is very nice. I used to collect old needlework tools and have three similar to that one. I have also one with knitting needles in used for knitting stockings. That is shown in my web site under Antique fairs. Unfortunately I cannot afford to collect them now and will eventually sell my collection. I have no daughters and my DIL is not interested in needlework. Shirley

The prices have certainly risen, my aunt has one of those lovely old tables with the fabric pull out underneath it etc. When in the Cotswolds we went into a place called At The Sign of the Herald Angel (there was a lovely herald angel outside rather like a pub sign) where they sold needlework tables etc. The prices even then made her realize how valuable hers was. There was a revival of interest in them sometime in the early 80s.

Let me know when you're ready to sell. We can arrange something, if I can afford the price
