The blue handled stone is a scissor sharpener. I have one and if I remember the metal piece holds the scissor blade at the right angle and you pull the scissor along it. They make much better ones now and I don't use mine anymore.

The cabinet is beautiful. Where are you? And how much?

Scissors nips are for snipping the threads. They are used by seamstress in the garment industry. Once upon a time sewing machines did not have automatic or built in/stick on thread cutters.

These I don't have the slightest idea of what they are, the big ones has the word Werthan on it and the small one says Made in England on it. The large one is 6" and the small is 4" and actually looking at the top it looks like a crack on it where you could slip thread thru? |
Thank you elnan

That is a nice sewing table especially if that is a lift but I can totally understand why you were bonkers over the thread cabinet. Enjoy!

love the screw driver

Those large needles look like what I used to use when doing hand
repairs on upholstery (cushions and such). My grandma gave me a set of these needles 30 years ago. |
The lift is called an Air Lift don't beleive its electric it has a lever on it
|
Can't tell by the size of eyelet or not, but the big needle looks like something they used to lace lady boots with. But, as I said I can't really tell the size of eyelet.
