Purse of green velvet with drawstring and trimmed with gold thread on a box in the form of scissors (phallus?) made of ditto velvet and trimmings; with two metal eyes. At first glance; the object looks like a sheath for a pair of scissors with a small pouch on the front; lined with leather and provided with a drawstring of braided gold thread. However; the case cannot open and the pouch is so small that hardly any coins fit in it.; anonymous; Netherlands (possibly); after 1580; bekleding; binnenwerk; passement; trekkoord; voering buideltje; ogen; forging; l 11 cm x w 7.5 cm
