Social History — 1600-1699
Thimble
Silver thimble punched with square-shaped indentations, and with a zig-zag pattern with floral decoration along the side. The rim is also embelished with the same floral decoration, as the tip of the thimble. There are damaged areas at the tip and close to the rim which indicate that the thimble was created from a flat piece of silver which was then joined at the side.
