Alkonost, the Slavic Bird of Paradise Magnetic Needle Box by Primitive and Wood (P&W)

Designer embroidery accessories

A unique and beautifully crafted magnetic needle case featuring a vibrant print of the mythical Alkonost, taken from an antique Russian lubok (folk woodcut).

• Size: 67 × 89 × 16 mm (approx. 2.6 × 3.5 × 0.63")
• Inner window: 55 × 69 × 4 mm (approx. 2.2 × 2.7 × 0.16")
• Needles rest on a secure magnetic vinyl strip
• Case is held firmly closed by 2 pairs of strong neodymium magnets
• Print is sealed and hand-sanded – won’t fade or wear off over time

This elegant and unconventional accessory brings a touch of folklore and symbolism to your stitching setup. The Alkonost – part-woman, part-bird – was believed to sing so beautifully that all who heard her forgot their sorrows.

A matching thread organizer with the same artwork is available in the Alkonost Lubok collection
