This certainly isn't a lace bobbin - there's nowhere to wind the thread. I don't think it's a stilleto because the point's rather short and the taper's a bit steep. Thought there might be a stanhope (magnifying glass with tiny pictures of scenes of a town or village) in the blunt end, but the 'hole' looks oval rather than round and I've only ever seen round stanhopes.
So has anyone got an idea what it is? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3244596103&category=114 or search for item number 3244596103 Jean in Poole - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
