My second photo shows a netting stirrup in use, and is from Nerylla Tsunton's ANTIQUE NEEDLEWORK TOOLS AND EMBROIDERIES. 4" wide at the base and 2 1/2" tall with attached split ring for attaching the anchor ribbon.

The containers for these tools were quite often beautiful works of ivory, bone, straw, tortoise, or other materials. EM> .PaymentI accept Paypal payments for your convenience.
