Charles X Silver-Gilt Sewing Kit

The history of jewelry

A sewing kit is a small, easily transportable storage box or case containing a variety of utensils used for sewing and embroidery. This item was sold by tatting merchants as early as the 18th century. Its trade grew significantly during the Napoleon III era and into the Belle Époque. The kit typically included a thimble, a pair of scissors, a thread puller, an awl, and a needle case.
