I've had several over time, so I'm always very happy to find one with the early 1800s French gold marks, accurate for trading out lesser replacement you might have in your set. I have amassed a stash of such bits, always thinking I'll find a set into which it will perfectly fit, but I believe it's about time to sell them all as singles. This one remains essentially unused, and is the dainty size (see measurements on photos) that fit the openings. I took measurements in mm so you can be very exact in filling in your lost one in your Palais Royal sewing case.  You're buying only the 18k French thimble in this offering. The embroidery panels are not included, but help to show off small sewing tools. Full measurements noted on photos. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good to excellent condition, acid-tested at 18k but also bears an early French gold mark for c.1809-1819, a guarantee it is officially of that age and perfect to fill your own Palais Royal sewing set that was missing the thimble. No damage, no dents. At an angle of light, it's possible to see a faint line of construction (at our greatly enlarged scale). It is not a flaw. No appearances of having ever been used. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiques \u0026 Uncommon Treasure","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48762280935678,"sku":"826thimb18k","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0298\/3392\/0556\/files\/826thimb18k.jpg?v=1787431068","url":"https:\/\/antiques-uncommon-treasure.com\/ja\/products\/antique-french-c-1809-18k-gold-palais-royal-sewing-set-thimble-with-french-empire-shield","provider":"Antiques \u0026 Uncommon Treasure","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
