Bestiary Aviarium (France, c. 1270) Floss Organizer with Thread Keeper by Primitive and Wood (P&W)

Designer embroidery accessories

A dual-purpose organizer inspired by a 13th-century illuminated bestiary — Aviarium by Hugo de Fouilloy (c. 1270, Flanders). Designed for both full skeins and working strands, with historical flair and stitching practicality.

Features:
• Upper section: 8 large circular holes (Ø 15 mm) for holding full skeins
• Lower section: 8 shaped slots for individual strands – easily pull one thread with your needle tip without removing the bundle
• Size: 145 × 150 mm (approx. 5.7 × 5.9")
• Material: 4 mm birch plywood
• Hand-sanded and sealed – smooth surface, fade-resistant print

Included accessory:

• Matching thread keeper (fob) with two double-sided printed wooden cabochons (Ø 30 mm) on a satin ribbon

• The keeper can also be removed and looped onto scissors or project bags for easy identification

Artwork:
The print features illustrations from the medieval Bestiary Aviarium, filled with symbolic birds and animals from monastic teaching traditions. A visual treasure from the Gothic manuscript world.

This beautifully detailed set combines medieval art with modern stitching functionality — a perfect gift or collector’s piece for those who love embroidery with a story.

Elegant and spacious, this organizer is a joy to use for any large or color-heavy project — combining historical beauty with practical stitching needs.
