Lipstick case, handmade (France).
In any form of needlework is your Olympus. The embroidery is definitely Petit point (small point, FR.). As a canvas is the grid made of pure silk, with very fine mesh.
Before using such mills sowed flour.
A skilled embroiderer, skilled at petit point, featuring the finest cotton threads more than four shades. Imagine what should be the sense of color!
And visual acuity! And patience! On one square cm - 361 stitch. Rare keen eyes can distinguish the stitch!
A good excuse to indulge in a vintage thing or present to friends or relatives.
Condition, all as pictured.
