Product Details

This is a vintage porcelain thimble featuring a red-headed bird (likely a woodpecker or finch) on a branch with floral patterns. It is a collectible item, often made of fine bone china. Similar items are described as being made in England or Germany. Porcelain thimbles like this became popular in the 19th century and were often used more for display than practical sewing. It has a gold-colored trim around the base.
