ART: Antique Thimbles


 
Thimbles. 
I never gave them a thought. 
That is, before I  spent some time with an elderly neighbor lady from my old neighborhood who was recuperating from surgery and we spent the afternoon looking at her thimble collection. 

First, I needed my glasses to see be able to focus on the intricate designs and scrollwork. Some had small colored crystals in a border design around the bottom.

One was made of carnival glass and had some hand etching. Some were silver. Some were brass. She had a story to go with each one of them.
