Antique Vintage Millinery Hat Maker Tools Wood Brim Holder And Spindrel Spinner
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:42522354 | Maker: Uknown |
Up for auction is an antique wood millinery hat maker tool set in fair to good condition commensurate with age. This was given to me by a friend whose grandmother worked in a hat factory a gazillion years ago ( so I was told!). Based on this information, I'm going to assume that these tools date from the 1930's/40's, but they could be earlier. I'm just not sure. Unfortunately, there are no markings. The set shows typical wear & tear so please make sure to examine the photos careful...ly, Also, please refer to photo #9 to see an up close view of the wood pin on the spinner. The set includes the wood brim holder and a spindrel/spinner. Together, they were used to make brimmed hats back in the day. The spindrel / spinner holds the head block. If you're a hat maker, then you probably already know this! I've included measurements for each piece below. If you need additional measurements, I would be happy to send them;
brim holder - 11 1/2" x 8 1/4" (outside end to end) 9" x 7 1/2" ( inside measurements) 5" high ( end measurments)
