This utterly charming and very unusual Victorian Novelty thimble holder is in the form of an opera glass case or binocular case. It comprises two Victorian silver thimbles, both dated 1894. One by the collectable Charles Horner, Chester 1894, the other by John Culver, Birmingham 1894. The green leather case with original interior. Truly delightful!
