Lot Description

A leather cased "Lady's Companion" sewing kit containing thimbles, scissors, pencil etc. Some pieces at fault.

Postage: Auction Default

Weight: No

Total lot weight: No

All items show signs of general wear with scratches, marks and tarnishing, all objects are filthy and would be ameliorated by a clean. The thimbles all look to be a fairly good condition but also possess the odd dint and dent. The scissors have broken at the handle on both sides before the finger grips. The pencil has lost its lead. Two additional parts of the kit appear to be a needle or awl and a seam ripper. The former is slightly bent and the latter is at fault.  There is a pouch and cleaning cloth which may appear to have been part nibbled on. Also present is a written list in pencil. The box looks to be in quite good condition but is marked in some areas, especially at corners.
