This Unger sterling needlecase may originally have been for a chatelaine but is just as beautiful in a sewing case or workbasket. I wonder if the charm was added before or after it was first sold.

    Beautiful! Do you know around when this was made?

    I'm not really certain. My reproduction Unger catalogs are in storage. I would guess that it would have been in the 1890's but they went out of business around 1910? so it could be 20th century.
