Inside is a solid silver thimble by Charles May, hallmarked for Birmingham 1901, size 2 with a facet cut edge and incised scrollwork and feathering. Both are in gorgeous vintage condition, the thimble looks barely used, no pin prick holes, the egg thimble case closes firmly and is complet with a small hanging chain.
