Vintage Sterling Silver Filigree Thimble - Maltese Cross

A very pretty silver thimble, marked 925 for sterling silver. The sides are an intricate filigree pattern, with the look of coiled ropes, or wound fern fronds. The tip is plain and solid. There is a Maltese cross on the side.

We're not sure how old this is or where it was made - possibly late 20th Century in Malta, as a souvenir. But it's definitely vintage and is in excellent, usable condition. A lovely collectible piece.

"Have nothing in your houses you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful"

William Morris


At Know to be Beautiful, we believe that beautiful things warm the heart and make a house a home. And the world is full of beautiful things!

Over the decades artists and craftsmen have used our limited natural resources to make wonderful items. Once something has been loved and used it often makes it more beautiful, so, rather than always making new things, we like finding a new home for something that has already been made.

We aim for elegant packaging, to make classy gifts, but we try not to go over the top with plush boxes that are too good to throw away, but of no actual use!
