Some pages of this catalogue list retail stock for sale. Consisting mainly of Australian made and themed thimbles, you'll find thimbles of a large variety of materials, themes and sizes to purchase in this section of the catalogue.

Other pages contain thimbles that come from other people's collections I have for sale from around the world. There is such a good selection to choose from, as I get so many large collections for sale. There may be something on these pages that you've been searching for. There is usually only one of each and they are offered on a first-come-first served basis.

Thimbles that can be used for sewing and needlework have the internal diameter included. Those that are larger than usual have their height in millimeters.
