2 Antique Carved Ivory Thread Winders * English * Circa 1840
These little antique silk winders are beautifully carved of real ivory. One is in the shape of a flower with a carved flower in the center. The other is very unusual but a practical shape as it would hold a lot of thread. It measures 1″ x 2″. The flower winder is 1 1/2″ in diameter. Both are in excellent condition with no chips or cracks and they have nice old patinas and ivory grain patterns.
