A solid sterling silver pin cushion, dating from the Edwardian era, in the shape of a pair of bellows.
Hallmarked on the side for Birmingham 1906 with the maker''s mark for Ridley Brothers & Merton. The marks are a little worn but still discernible.
The bellows have the original blue cushion, slightly faded at the edges. One side is set with a semi-precious hardstone boss. The ''handles'' have a hook for attaching to a chatelaine. One of the handles has been slightly bent out of shape.
A lovely, fairly rare pin cushion for a collector.
