Bon état.
Set de couture comprenant un étui en bakélite pour contenir des aiguilles et du fil de secours, fermé par un dé à coudre en bakélite du même ton des années 1920/1930.
La bakélite a été développée vers 1907 par un chimiste belge (Leo Backeland) d'où son nom ! Ce fût le 1er plastique fait de polymères synthétiques utilisé tout au long de la 1ère moitié du XXe siècle mais abandonné dès l'apparition d'un autre plastique dérivé du pétrole en 1950.
La bakélite a été utilisée aussi dans la couture de luxe comme cet objet que les femmes pouvaient glisser dans leur sac à main pour une retouche couture d'urgence.
A mettre dans son sac à main ou pour les collectionneurs d'objets en bakélite !
