ALMOST EVERY INDUSTRY AND CULTURE
Thimbles were used for more than simply stitching. Bookbinding, leatherworking, and lace-making were among the many crafts that included them. These multipurpose implements provided safety and accuracy in a variety of fields.
In addition, thimbles found a way into mythology and popular culture. In the classic children’s tale “Peter Pan,” a thimble represented a kiss. The ubiquitous thimble in early 20th-century households was reflected in the popular board game Monopoly, which included it as one of its initial components.
ARTIFACTS CONSERVED AND CULTURAL FEASTS
Nowadays, thimbles from yesteryear are highly prized by collectors and aficionados. Because of their rich history, unique styles, and meticulous workmanship, they are in great demand. Thimbles crafted of certain materials, such as porcelain, bone china, or sterling silver, or from particular time periods tend to attract collectors who focus on these items.
