Yup fer sure. They are "pirns" for weavers shuttles. How about: Everybody
write them a note so they'll believe, change the title, and get the right
bidders to bid on them. Its mean to know what they are and not say.

I looked further, the 'spools' pictured are probably thread holders from
boat or fly shuttles (weaving)

I've never seen anything like them, but I'm wondering if they aren't
some kind of peg used in all-wood carpentry. You see some of them have
metal bits married in, and in shape they're more like commonly
available metal nails and pegs than they are like lace bobbins! Can't
think what the spool thingies are for, though.
