And 39 of them are described as bone/ivory. I've just got home from
Upchurch lace Day where David Springett was the speaker and he said
that in all of his experience he's only seen ONE antique bobbin that
was made of ivory! Maybe that's why they are attracting such a nice
price.
Looks like a genuine collection of old bobbins but nothing spectacular.
Pity the photos were taken at such an acute angle - impossible to see
exactly what's in the lot, but an average of more than 10 GBP per
bobbin does seem a bit steep.
A VERY RARE CHANCE TO BUY A LARGE COLLECTION OF ANTIQUE LACE BOBBINS TO
INCLUDE 39 BONE / IVORY EXAMPLES ALL WITH THERE BEADS AND 56 TREEN
EXAMPLES ALSO WITH ALL THERE BEADS PLEASE DO NOT NOT TO MANY QUESTIONS
REGARD TO THIS LOT MY KNOWLEDGE IS LIMITED ALL I CAN SAY THERE ARE FROM
A GENUINE HOUSE CLEARANCE AND TOTALLY GENUINE VERY RARE CHANCE.
