Palais Royal Etui - Undoubtedly made in the palais royal district of Paris in the early 19th century, this
beautiful boxed needlework set is both rare and quite special. The set includes: mother of pearl handled
scissors, needlecase, star shaped silk winder and two reels, as well as a crystal scent bottle and a replacement
gilt thimble. The scissors are especially beautiful. The velvet lined fitted box is embossed red leather.
The reels, the silk winder and the scissors are in excellent condition. The scent bottle has an obvious repair
and the needlecase has a small chip on the inside of the case (visable in the 3rd picture). The bodkin is
missing. The button closure on the box is also missing, although the box opens and closes with absolutely no
problem.
