Black Cherry Burl amkes a gorgeous little case, complete with seemingly zillions of tiny eyes! Near the top, I inlaid a band of carefully placed Turquoise Gemstones, which are like a tiny mosaic. Findings plated in 24k gold, this nifty holder is lined with nickel-plated brass, and will easily accommodate sewing, embroidery, or yarn needles, toothpicks, or even small beads. Personally, I use one of mine as a small pill box. Comes with an attachable key ring, or can be used as a necklace or on a chatelaine. Top screws on for security. Total length is three and one-eighth inches. Heirloom quality.
