A charming vintage sterling silver shoe-form pin cushion, fashioned as an elegant little heeled slipper and fitted with a traditional fabric cushion in muted rose and cream tones. The underside is clearly stamped STERLING, confirming the silver content of the exterior.
These figural shoe pin cushions were both practical sewing accessories and decorative dressing-table objects, making them particularly appealing today to collectors of antique and vintage sewing tools, sterling silver novelties, vanity accessories, and miniature shoes.
The piece has a weighted construction that gives this small pin cushion a pleasingly substantial feel.

Styling
A wonderful addition to a collection of antique sewing notions, sterling silver miniatures or vintage vanity accessories. It would look especially charming displayed alongside antique scissors, thimbles, needle cases and other sewing collectibles.
