Three large painted Tunbridge Ware reels- 4cm tall and 3.5cm in diameter.
Such reels are usually very small as they were fitted onto a steel rod which was fixed across a compartment in the sewing box tray. These three could also have been used in the same manner but there is some light wear to each on one side only suggesting that they were seated vertically.
The turned boxwood is painted with the usual red, yellow and black concentric rings top and bottom.
4cm tall
3.5cm in diameter.
