WOW, IS THIS OLD AND DELICATE. IT IS A STICKPIN/HATPIN HOLDER. IT ONLY STANDS 1.75" TALL SO I THINK IT MAY BE MORE FOR STICK PINS. I TRIED TO GET CLOSE UP SHOTS OF THIS, BECAUSE I AM NOT SURE THE RIGHT WORD TO USE FOR THIS OLD STYLE STITCHING. IT IS SO SMALL AND INTRICATE. IT LOOKS LIKE HUNDREDS OF LITTLE OPEN HOLED BABY DONUTS AND THE COLORING IS LOVELY. PINKS, BLUES, GREENS, AND BROWNS THE STITCHING IS MADE ON A SILK OR SATIN BLUE COLOR AND THEN THERE IS A GOLD AND COPPER COLOR STITCHING. THEN THERE IS BRAIDING IN A GOLD OR BRASS COLOR AT TOP AND BOTTOM EDGE. WHAT HOLDS THE PINS IN PLACE IS AN UNUSUAL WRAPPED PAPER OR CARDBOARD. IT WIGGLES BACK AND FORTH INSIDE. I TRIED TO GET A TOP VIEW FOR YOU TO SEE. THE BOTTOM LEGS ARE 3 EARLY PUSH PINS AND YOU CAN SEE SOME DETERIORATION ON THE BOTTOM. IT LOOKED LIKE IT IS SILK OR SATIN ALSO, BUT PARTIALLY MISSING. THOSE PINS IN IT WILL ALSO COME WITH IT. THERE ARE A COUPLE RHINESTONE STICKPINS , PEARL LIKE, BLACK GLASS WITH A CHIP. PRETTY GREEN GLASS, ONE WITH A GREEN CENTER, A CAT WITH RED EYES, BUT LOOKS CORRODED, A LODGE PIN, AND ONE WITH HALF ITS STONES MISSING. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IF SOMEONE COULD HELP ME WITH THE NAME OF THE STITCHING THIS IS MADE OUT OF. . IT IS LOVELY AND LOOKS SO VERY OLD AND UNDER THE MATERIAL IS WOOD. ENJOY!!!! . PLEASE ENLARGE PHOTOS FOR A BETTER VIEW I WILL read more
