Vintage
These items, carefully tracked down, reflect the high quality found in traditional needlecraft tools from around the world. They make wonderful presents for those with an interest in the history of needlework. The older tools and accessories are genuine vintage items. Each one is unique and, of course, in a condition commensurate with its age. Because our vintage stock changes all the time we only show a few items here to give an idea of what we keep. Please e-mail or phone if you would like to know more. Of course, sometimes, you might prefer to have a less expensive reproduction item - which you can use easily whilst enjoying the elegance of days gone by without the worry of damaging an antique item. Our wide range of silver and pewter reproduction needlework tools is ideal for this.
Gifts
Almost all vintage and reproduction items come in a solid, black velvet gift box, lined with white satin and with the logo of The Silk Mill stamped in silver inside. The box both displays and protects your item. If you are giving your vintage or reproduction needlework purchase as a gift this adds to its charm - and if you are going to enjoy it yourself it will keep it safe! For larger or odd-shaped items, we still try to find an attractive packaging solution. Coming soon - framed prints, vintage needlework and vintage advertising.
