The Daphni needleminder is part of Avlea's collection of unabashedly beautiful needleminders inspired by Byzantine decorative motifs. A circle of laurel leaves ("daphni" in Greek) is one of the most enduring motifs in the Classical world, traveling from ancient Greek friezes through Byzantine illuminated manuscripts. Rendered in graceful gold against an elegant celadon background, this is a needleminder with centuries of decorative history in every line. A needleminder does more than hold your needle when you set your work down. The strong neodymium magnet secures your fabric as you stitch and keeps your pattern attached to your frame — a small tool that earns its place on every project. Size: 1" across Magnet: 1/2" neodymium (strong!) Finish: Hard enamel with gold finish Show more
