Description

This has been in my family for over 100 years and belonged to my grandfather (I’m 70 years old) who was in the British navy all his life. It is made of leather and metal and fits over the palm to help sew thick sailcloth. It would make an interesting addition to a collection of antique maritime items or sewing tools.
