The dark red fabric thread (about 12”) contained in this glass vial silver plated pendant was used to upholster the second class chairs on board the Titanic. It is from an original roll-end fabric piece taken by Robert Browne, Payroll Master for Harland and Wolff during the building of the Titanic in 1911, and handed down to his direct descendants. In 1998, the fabric in its entirety, was displayed at the Vancouver Maritime Museum's Titanic Shipwreck Show and has since been on exhibit at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and National Geographic Museums. Comes with a signed COA and several support documents.

Effort is always made to supply sterling silver caps when found and reasonably priced. They are very difficult to find but it does happen. *These have a rubber stopper in place but have proved not to be water proof. 

* Side note: Starting in 2005 this was the first Titanic artifact ever regularly offered for sale, with the public setting the price. Three of these were put up for auction starting at .99¢. When over, the average end prices were over $160 usd. The price was reduced by approx 25% and has stayed the same ever since.
