Peter Pan Antiqued Silver Finished Brass deals Thimble and Hidden Heart Acorn Necklace Peter Pan and Wendy Hidden Kisses III

Thimbles were given as love tokens in Victorian times when gifts of any type were discouraged between men and women. Peter Pan and Wendy exchanged thimbles and acorn buttons as kisses. In American Colonial times when items of jewelry were prohibited for moral reasons a thimble was the gift from a fiance to his future bride as a symbol of love and pledge of eternal togetherness. When she married the women removed the bottom of the thimble to form more of a wedding ring. With such a long history thimbles as a tender gesture of affection I have created a series of thimble necklaces.

This lovely Antiqued silver finished brass filigree thimble was made in Russia. The detail is simply stunning. I have paired it with a shiny and antiqued acorn that opens to reveal a tiny gold heart. (photo #3) The acorn is secured closed with a tiny magnet. They hang on a 22" stainless steel chain that closes with a lobster clasp. All the charm and beauty of a sterling silver thimble at a lower price point. A lovely gift of hidden kisses to wear or share with the one you love to kiss.
