Bobbin Cotton Cutout Needle Reel Sewing Shape Shaped Thread

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming Victorian-era greetings card, shaped like a reel of white cotton with a needle. This intricately crafted card, estimated to date from the late 1890s, is a delightful nod to the era's textile industry and the art of sewing. The round, wooden card features a detailed cutout of a cotton reel, complete with winding threads, and a needle delicately poised atop, ready to sew. The white cotton reel and needle were symbols of domesticity and industry during this period, making this card a thoughtful and unique expression of affection or well-wishes. The card's vintage character is further enhanced by its aged, distressed appearance, which adds to its antique charm. This beautiful piece of history is a must-have for collectors of Victorian memorabilia, textile enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates the simple beauty of a well-crafted greetings card.
