These are sewing thimbles..... some are just decorative because people have collected them over the years.... but my mom who was a great seamstress used hers all the time.
These are both called Thimbles. The picture I put out on the blog is called a "WIRE ROPE THIMBLE."
The booth next to me was using them for making a type of bridle, wish I would have taken a photo of that too, so you could see it.
