Antiques : Sewing Items : Black Forest Needle Case

 

Sweetpea Cottage is offering this delightful knitting needle or crocheting needle case. Made out of solid wood and hand carved in the style of Black Forest carvings, it is in beautiful condition. The carving is organic in nature resembling leaves, but there is no overall theme to the carving. It measures a total of 10 inches long from tip to tip and is about 1 1/8 inches wide. There are two different colors of wood, European walnut on the two ends and basswood in the center. The surface has been nicely waxed so that it carries a gentle shine that emphasizes its beautiful patina. It is in excellent condition with no signs of any damage. When we obtained this item there were 4 needles in it, two of bone, one metal, and one plastic. You can have them when you buy the case.
