Yugoslavia Flag Thimble Porcelain Historic

A flag without a country

The flag of Yugoslavia belongs to a state that no longer exists. Precisely because of that, this thimble is more than decoration: it is a small historical document. Objects from vanished countries hold a special place within collections, because they freeze a moment in time that will never return.

Why vanished lands are sought after

Flag collectors know the fascination with states that disappeared from the map: the USSR, East Germany, Yugoslavia. The supply stops after all; what exists, exists. Consequently the uniqueness of such objects only increases. This edition belongs in every serious historical collection.

Personal memories

For people who grew up in or around Yugoslavia, or have family there, this thimble evokes personal memories. It is a respectful memento of an era that shaped part of their identity.

A gift straight from the history books

Looking for an original present for a history buff? This thimble combines collecting pleasure with a lesson in European twentieth century. History cannot get much smaller without losing its power.

Documenting what disappeared

Collectors of vanished states are partly historian, partly archivist. With this edition, therefore, gladly document the context: period, design and background of the flag. That prevents misunderstandings later and raises the value of your collection for everyone looking at it. Store the object safely, since completing it is nearly impossible. Whoever retells this story to younger generations keeps the memory of a complex European era alive - precisely what such unique objects are meant for. History truly comes alive when you can hold it.
