Reinforced Leather Thimble, Bohin France

Reinforced Leather Thimble, Bohin France
£19.50
Ex Tax: £16.25
A traditional leather thimble with a reinforced non-slip metal tip on the interior. Leather thimbles are brilliant for tough and fiddly sewing projects, as they allow for the gripping of needles and pins, while also protecting the finger. Over time, this thimble will take the shape of your finger to create a natural and comfortable fit.

Care Advice

Avoid getting leather soaking wet, when it is time to clean it a lukewarm damp cloth will do. If the leather has been soaked it should not be dried with a hairdryer or furnace, but rather dried slowly in a warm location. Oil with a leather conditioner to soften the leather every so often, as failing to do so could lead to cracks or tears. Apply a small amount to a cloth and rub into the leather, covering the whole surface. Use friction to heat the leather, allowing the conditioner to soak in, and leave for 30 minutes. Using a clean cloth, wipe away any excess
