Medieval Bone Needle Case – Handcrafted Ox Bone Tube with Wooden Screw Lid

Description

This handcrafted Medieval Bone Needle Case offers a timeless solution for storing and protecting your sewing tools—just as tailors and textile workers did across Europe centuries ago. Carved from natural ox bone and paired with a richly grained wooden lid, the piece brings together durability and elegance in a form that feels both ancient and purposeful.

The cylindrical tube has been smoothed and polished to highlight the natural beauty of the bone while offering a cool, tactile grip. The wooden stopper is screw-threaded for a snug, reliable seal, ensuring that needles and small pins remain safely tucked away, whether resting in your tool pouch or carried on a belt.

Historically, artisans prized bone and horn for crafting secure cases that kept metal tools dry and rust-free. Such items were not only functional but also signified a craftsperson’s care and dedication to their trade. This case continues that tradition—an excellent addition to sewing kits, medieval workbenches, or historical displays.

Whether you’re involved in hand embroidery, textile repair, or traditional crafts, this piece combines function and heritage in a compact form you’ll reach for again and again.
