c1900 polished bone & German steel awl or stiletto
$32.00
Circa 1900 polished bone awl or stiletto set with German steel, used for creating holes in fabric for eyelet embroidery and other techniques. The bone is very fine-grained, nearly white and polished so smooth it feels like glass. The tapered steel point is quite sharp.
3-1/2″ long in very good condition and sturdy enough to use daily. There are a few spots of discoloration on the metal and a crack in the bone of one side but the crack appears stable and tight.
