Antique Solid Silver Ww1 Red Cross Pin Cushion - 1916

1900 - 1920
Description

An excellent example of a solid sterling silver First World War pin cushion, fashioned in the iconic red cross.

Hallmarked clearly on the side for S Blanckensee & Sons Ltd, the pin cushion also carries a patent number.

The circular base is weighted and the sides are stepped upwards towards the central cross. The fabric in the cushion is rough to the touch - I imagine somebody has tried to clean it. The silver is in very good condition. There are a few dings to the base, but no tears or splits. The pin cushion is not gilded - any suggestion of gilding in the pictures is just a reflection of the camera flash, as are any shadows.

Dimensions:

Diameter: 5.7cm

Height: 1.5cm.

Post and packaging are free within the UK via Royal Mail special delivery. Overseas buyers please e-mail for postage costs. Thank you.

Please note: payment by credit or debit card can be made by pressing the ‘pay now’ button on the item page - A PayPal account is not needed.
