EddyFaberBobbins
Announcement
Eddy Faber Bobbins is a team effort between myself and my partner Jo. I turn the bobbins and lacemaking tools, and have a bead buying habit. Jo is the lacemaker who tests and critiques the new designs for bobbins and tools.
By training, we are both archaeologists. I study ancient crafts, which fits well with a love of old bobbins. I’m fascinated by the way they were made, and so you can find the inspiration for many of my designs in the style and technique of turning old bobbins.
We supply hand-turned bobbins and lacemaking tools, spangles, antique wood and bone bobbins, and antique bone crochet hooks.
During the current Covid-19 situation the shop remains open, but I am reducing the frequency that I will be posting orders to reduce contact with staff in the post office. Rather than the postage deadlines mentioned in the listings, I will be going to the post office only once a week - on a Friday. In most cases this will not affect the speed at which your order is posted. I hope you will understand.
Please also be aware that any items we send to the EU may be liable for import taxes and/or customs charges (including relevant handling charges) - customers are responsible for paying this themselves.

5 out of 5 starsArrived in good time and in a nice, sturdy box so nothing in my order was anything other than pristine. The beads are beautiful and are already on wire to attach to my bobbins. I'm always very pleased with my purchases from this seller - thank you.

5 out of 5 starsThese pins are a delight to use. Being made from wood they have a warm and luxurious feel, and the different colours and grain in the wood make them attractive and unique. I'm very pleased with them - thank you.
