A stunning specimen of agate distinguishes this diminutive French sewing nécessaire. The segments of beautiful hard stone are perfectly complemented by Rococo gold accents, making it more an objet d’art than simply a sewing case. Inside, instruments including a penknife, pencil, scissors, slip, bodkin and tweezers are nestled within the fitted interior. A work of art inside and out, this exquisite nécessaire is a wonderful collector’s piece.
