5 Colorful Vintage Tatting Shuttles

American & English * Circa 1930-1960

These old shuttles are made of early plastics, celluloid and Bakelite. They are different colors and shapes. All are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or wobbling. They all have intact and touching points and would be perfect to use. The black shuttle is painted with a flower and the larger pink shuttle has beveled edges. They measure from 2 3/4" x 3/4" to 3 3/8" x 1".
