  • 13-inch closed bottom Boat Shuttle, Silkwood Maple

    13-inch closed bottom Boat Shuttle, Silkwood Maple

    $109.00

    Silkwood maple holds some wonderful color tones. The heart-wood holds gorgeous bronze tones and the wood closer to the sapwood actually turns to silver tones.

    The shuttles that we have available in this listing are grouped together regardless of color tone and as such, the images shown are examples only of the typical colors that we have available at this time. Rest assured they are all lovely in the hand and individually wonderful.

    Some of these shuttles can have a splash of figure within the grain, but not enough to warrant an individual listing (that takes precious time).

    These shuttles take a standard 100mm ashford style bobbin (not included) but will accept other bobbins.

     

     

  • 13-inch Boat Shuttle, Figured Silkwood Maple, closed bottom #8

    13-inch Boat Shuttle, Figured Silkwood Maple, closed bottom #8

    $125.50

    This shuttle holds some nice figure that is subtle yet very pretty. The figure is throughout the body and changes as you turn the shuttle on different angles. As this shuttle is not one with rare heavy figure, it is priced accordingly, a little above a standard grain and below the exotic quality pricing.

    The shuttle takes a standard 100mm ashford style bobbin (not included) but will accept other bobbins.
