Antique Velvet Strawberry Pincushion with Metal Beads and Crocheted Flower A small antique strawberry pincushion made from deep red velvet and decorated with tiny gilt metal beads to represent the seeds. The strawberry has a softly segmented form, giving it a plump and naturalistic appearance. It is finished with faded blue-green textile leaves and a small cream crocheted flower at the top. The combination of velvet, metallic beadwork and hand-worked textile details gives this diminutive pincushion plenty of character. A charming addition to a collection of strawberry emeries, pincushions, antique haberdashery or early sewing accessories. ConditionGood antique condition with age-related fading and general surface fibres. The gilt metal beads remain present and show some tarnishing and surface wear consistent with age. The blue-green textile leaves are faded and frayed, while the cream crocheted flower shows discolouration and minor wear. The pincushion remains intact and displays well. Please study the photographs carefully as they form an important part of the condition description. DimensionsH: 3.5 cm x W: 2.25 cm EraLate Victorian to Edwardian, circa 1890–1910
