Victorian Needle Case


This wonderful Walnut sewing kit is Victorian I am told, because the lining is made out of leather. It is quite light weight, so it isn't pure brass, but a nice brass color. Posted by Hello

Tie this to your bag and when all the other black bags come rolling off the baggage claim belt, yours will call out to you and away you go!
