A Needle
Does anybody have any idea at all what this is?
I do not know. It looks like a bag needle, just a little under 6" long, however, it is far too elegant to sew up bags of wheat. The hilt is agate, the ferrule and tang rivet plate are both high content silver, the patina suggests at least 18th century. Suggestions? |
