VINTAGE SAILMAKER'S NEEDLES LEATHER WORK CANVAS NEEDLE TJ&S

Really nice pair of rare, vintage sail maker or leather worker's steel sewing needles, both clearly maker marked TJ&S. One measures approx 6.5 inches, the other more like 7.5 inches - ruler shown for scale.
These are old (late 19th Century would be my guess), beautifully made and still very sharp. Real antique specialised tools for a craftsman or woman. Perhaps used for saddlery, upholsterers, marine canvas repairs, leatherwork - I'm not sure. I am sure that these are hard to come by nowadays.
Price shown is for the pair. Postage will be extra - amount tbc.
Paypal and non-online payment methods fine - buyer covers fees if using the former. Read more
