Left to right these are Royal Albert from Windsor(courtesy of Niece Number One), Sterling Silver Dorcas thimble (courtesy of Old Gran = great grandmother), silver plate thimble from my LNS, two Indian brass thimbles (source unknown). Five of them but they still rattle around in my thimblepod which if I had stitched over one as directed would have housed one only!
However, there is space in my cabinet for this and I am satisfied - so what, if it is a mammoth thimblepod. I should just rename it....but as what??

Looks like a coin purse to me!
Very nice finish! I would still call it a thimble pod.
It is beautiful anyway. I agree with Anna, it would make a lovely coin purse.
No matter what you call it Margaret, it's very pretty and beautifully finished. I too have a collection of thimbles from over the years, it's good to see yours.
I love the thimblepod! I have never seen one before. I collect thimbles too so I enjoyed seeing yours!
It's beautiful whatever its name!
