AntiqueScallop Shell Needle Book English * Circa 1850 This wonderful little antique needlebook is made from a both sides of a real scallop shell. It has been drilled at the back and is tied with red silk ribbons . Inside are finely woven wool pages to hold the needles. They have all been edged in silk button hole stitches. There's a sliver chip at the edge on the back side of the shell, but it's in overall excellent condition. The shell measures 1 3/4" by 1 3/4". I stand behind everything that I offer and guarantee that it is exactly as presented. ** Full Insurance is included in the low shipping price for all of my auctions. ** ** Illustrated newsletters available on Antique Sewing Tools ** If you would like to be on my mailing list and receive the newsletters, email me at cmmeacham on AOL or visit my Elegantarts website to download them.
