This small box, in the form of a sloping knife box, opens to reveal two cotton reels, a thimble and two needle packets in slots for four in the back. Behind the needle packets there is a silk book for any loose needles.
The box has a wooden hinge and is decorated in the McBeth pattern tartan.
The surface varnish is pitted but this doesn't affect the underlying pattern at all.
NB. Although one of the two reels shows obvious signs of it being made of domestic animal bone the other doesn't but they are a pair.
