Early 1900’s Duchess 5” Embroidery Hoop with Vintage Floss

This hoop was made by Gibbs Mfg. Co of Canton, OH.  It is likely from the 1900’s – 1910’s.  It once had felt around the inner hoop, this is no longer in place.  There are a couple of areas of chipping on the hoop, please see the photos.  I believe this could still be used for stitching!

The floss is Boil Proof Bucilla Six Strand – the label encourages use of Ivory soap flakes for washing!  The box it came in is a DMC box, this is how they were found, I’m not sure they actually go together but are probably both from 1940's - 1950's.
