Shuttles purchased Online or at the tatting day in Hector, NY (2005 / 2006) Ia England Aero (post style) The “England” shuttles are part of an Ebay auction I won ($90); stated

the shuttles were from the 1930s to 1960s Ib England Aero (bobbin style) Ic England Aero vs. German one (lower on), you can see that the bumps that hold the bobbin are

much smaller, also, the England shuttle is a harder plastic so it is harder to get the bobbin in and out.

II No marking on this metal shuttle that was part of the England ebay purchase. It’s a heavier metal than the newer Boye metal shuttles. The Tatting Shuttles of American Collector’s 2002 book states that Aero did make a metal shuttle before the plastic one, so this may be an Aero.

III Milward plastic shuttle, top and side (England ebay item) IV A heavy metal post shuttle with no markings (England ebay item) V Pink and blue plastic post shuttles (England ebay item) VI Plastic post shuttle with rivot in post (England ebay item) VII France shuttle, BTEOUS PAYS (England ebay item) VIII Plastic button shuttle from Rita (Hector, NY) IX A GMA beading shuttle ($45). The wood is called Pink Ivory and its from South Africa and

considered to be one of the rarest of woods. It is the most expensive, costing about 5 times as much as other exotic hardwoods. Carved by David Stanbrough ([email protected]) http://www.grizzlymountainarts.com/shuttles.html
