Friendship + Remember Me, Pair of Early Punch Paper Embroideries on Ribbon brass letter opener There's an old thread still

There's an old thread still attached to the loop at top

with its speckles all over together with veins in the alabaster showing through making it extremely believable if not all that appetizing

I first grabbed this sharpening stone because I just loved the box in which it is set

Friendship + Remember Me, Pair of Early Punch Paper Embroideries on Ribbon brass letter opener There's an old thread stillTwo more 19th c. punch paper embroideries on ribbons, one of them marked "1814," I presume the date of its making, though hard to know for certain. Found together and I think quite apt as a pair, so I offer them up as such. Friendship: 7 5 8 x 1 1 16 overall. Remember Me: 7 1 4 x 1 1 16. Some wear to the pink ribbon of friendship but both embroideries in very good condition.
