Pretty Pale Pink Victorian Pin Cushion wooden nautical dial or else pressing it tightlyJust such a pretty form on this antique pin cushion, and lovely shade of pale salmon y pink, perfectly punctuated by the tightly wound gold thread and pink ribbon at the center of the top, like a present! I really love the white head of the one pin stuck in it too. Late ish 19th century I believe, and in good condition, with small puncture holes in the fabric and a bit of staining but many years of use left in it and still really great looking. 3 3 8"
