Miscellaneous Collectible Thimbles

Several different series of Snow White thimbles have been issued over the years. They are often made of bone china while others are porcelain. Each piece is decorated with a character illustration and often a gilded or painted line around the base or top. The inside is usually stamped with the manufacturer's name or logo. Many have been produced in the United Kingdom and in Germany too.

This set of bust illustrations measures approximately 26mm high x 22mm base diameter.
