This is a fantastic rare original early pincushion that originates from China and dates back to the 1930s. Often copied right up to this day this is great opportunity to get an early version. 

Originates from a collection of items left by a relative who travelled the world in the 1930s especially Asia.

It features a round tomato shape design with 8 figures to the side making it a great collectable for those interested in pin cushions. 

The craftsmanship is exquisite and it showcases the cultural heritage of China in a charming and adorable way making use of various scrap materials.

It is a great addition to any collection of pin cushions and sewing paraphernalia.
