A decorative collection of four vintage cotton thread reels, including a scarce F.W. Woolworth & Co. Ltd. butterfly-branded reel, two attractive Butterfly Machine Cotton reels and a smaller Greek butterfly-labelled reel.

The group displays beautifully together, with contrasting black, white and grey threads and a wonderful mix of graphic labels. The Woolworths reel is particularly appealing, retaining its colourful butterfly logo and "Specially Made for F.W. Woolworth & Co. Ltd." branding. The larger Butterfly reels still carry period Woolworth price labels, offering an evocative glimpse into mid-20th century haberdashery retailing.

Ideal for collectors of sewing antiques, vintage haberdashery, advertising memorabilia, shop displays, textile history, film props, or decorative sewing room interiors.
