Ullmannglass AE 1275 – blue vintage glass thimble

This blue glass thimble is a decorative item for people who like old sewing accessories. It is made in a traditional style reminiscent of antique thimbles from handicraft collections, and the iridescent finish makes the glass change shade depending on the light.

Look and craftsmanship

The surface is decorated with a vertical cut, which gives the thimble a distinct optical depth. The top is finely dimpled, and the lower edge has a serrated base. It weighs about 20 g and looks good on a shelf or in a display case.

Use

The thimble can be treated as part of a thimble collection, a showcase decoration or a gift for a lover of sewing and handicrafts. It keeps the classic shape, so it also fits a set of retro sewing accessories.

Specifications

A glass thimble needs gentle handling: it is best stored in a dry place, away from hard objects, and cleaned with a soft cloth. It is a collectible item, so the decorative glass is not intended for intensive sewing.
