METAL GOODS


BEAD NEEDLES  Generally, a needle's number indicates the smallest size bead through which it will pass. Thus a #10 needle will fit through 10/0, 9/0, 8/0 etc. and a #1 1 through 11/0, 10/0, 9/0.
Beading Needles
Size #10, long eye for easier threading. Our own personal preference for most beading, leather sewing, and general work.
                                                                                            Pack of 15 short 32mm needles  22-74000 (1) $ 1.25
Size #11, a finer needle, round eye.                                         Pack of 25         33mm needles 22-74001 (1) $ 1.95
Size #13, a finer needle yet, round eye.                                   Pack of 25          58mm needles  22-74002 (1) $ 1.95

GLOVER'S NEEDLES A needle with 3 sharp edges for sewing leather. If you have never used these you are in for a pleasant surprise at the ease with which they pierce leather. The smaller the number, the larger the needle. We find #5 the most versatile.

   Cones
CONES
One of the most useful of trimming supplies for a variety of craft projects.  This trade item goes back to at least 1650 (a dated Pequot specimen), and spread over much of native North America. Unlike the muffled sound of recently introduced aluminum our traditional type of tin plated steel produces a delightful musical 'tinkle' when in motion.
Our 1/2" size is perfect for combining with red dyed deer hair to make the moccasin and pouch fringes favoured by so many Woodlands and some Plains peoples.

TRADE BROOCHES  were one of the most common ornaments on 18th Century Eastern Woodlands clothing.  Today, one often hears them called Iroquois brooches perhaps because of all the Eastern Woodlands peoples the Six Nations developed the greatest number of native silversmiths -- a tradition which continues to this day.  However, the majority
of 18th Century sterling silver brooches bear the touch marks of Montreal and Philadelphia silversmiths.  Of the many dozens of designs, and various sizes of those designs, in which these ornaments appeared we have chosen these 8 as a representative selection in this low cost silver plated (on a copper base) line.  Note: According to the scholar Arthur C.
Parker (Seneca) those designs which have an apparent 'top' and 'bottom' were, in Colonial times, worn 'upside down' to the way they are customarily shown today, including the various  designs shown on our photo sheet.
