This vintage bakelite pin holder is a very collectable and useful item for all sewing enthusiasts. It will hold a quantity of your pins and when you press down the top section a single pin appears through the hole. No more fiddling with tins of pins and dropping them all on the floor.
Made from a lovely brown bakelite it has "Ideal Pin-dispenser" on the underside together with Pat.pend.
There is nothing to give a date for this pin holder and dispenser but I would imagine it dates from the 1930's or 40's.
It measures approx 65mm high and is approx 35mm diameter at the base.
It is in good condition. No pins are supplied but you will probably have plenty lying around so that you can play with it!
Please note. I do my best to accurately photograph and describe the condition of the items for sale, including any minor defects, but all pieces are vintage and have had previous lives and so may have minor flaws.
