Fabulous Vint Whicker (?) Sewing Basket
This item is rarely found in this condition,it appears to have all the doodads on the lid that were on it when made.I never know what to call the material these are made of so I used whicker to describe it.This is a large basket in excellent condition.I rarely call anything mint as there is always some little thing,the only thing I can find is on the ring (which feels like glass or marble) the stiching is letting loose and the tassels are getting a little threadbare.It is about 4 1/2" tall and about 8" across.

Vint Box Full Of Old Wooden Thread Spools
This box is very old,tongue and groove with no lid and it is full of very old wooden spools.One is very large with cord but it is damaged and the next largest one has wire,the rest are different sizes of sewing thread spools.I doubt if the thread is any good anymore but for a display they would work well.Even the damaged one can be placed with the damage to the back as it is only on one end and half of it is broken off.The largest one is 3 3/4" tall and the smallest one is 3/4" tall.There are 15 altogether and the box all for one price.

Vintage Miliflori Glass Buttons
I do not know much about buttons but I do know when they are nice.These are like the Milifori glassware with a kind of sugar hard candy look to the design of the colors which does go all the way through to the back.The red button has a metal thread holder attached,the two smaller ones have a loop in the back which is part of the button.They appear to be in excellent condition. The largest is just under 1/2" across.

Vint Celluloid Bullet Pocket Sewing Kit
Because of the color I originally thought this was a piece of Bakelite but it tested negative so it is just very old celluloid.It is an advertising piece but just says A FRIEND IN NEED G. M. K.There are a couple of cracks in the ends but they do not effect the top which screws on.There are two metal spools of thread and a thimble but no needles.It is rounded on each end which is why I called it a bullet (now guys I know that a bullet is not rounded on both ends but it reminds me of one on each end).It is about 2 1/2" long.

I do not know much about buttons but I do know when they are nice.These buttons are different,the two clear one's are different from each other,one is more like a diamond and the other one is more like a stop sign.The four blue ones are more oblong and are a kind of aurora borealis blue.They appear to be in excellent condition.The thread goes through the actual button in the back.The largest is about 1/2" across.
