My whole pride, a very old shuttle made of ivory. I found it on a flea market. Besides a very old shuttle made of
tortoise-shell. By the way: the doily is
antique, too. |

This shuttle is made of sterling silver. Single hand crafted by Karen Bovard (The
Shuttle Smith / see link

The shuttle in the middle with a fish form is made of bone. The shuttle on the left is made of brass, the shuttle on the
top is made of silver and the one on the right side is made of amber. All were handcrafted by Heiko Pund, Bardewischer Ring 24, D-27809 Lemwerder, Tel. (0421) 671741

The shuttle on the right an the needle are made of horn (of a cow). The other shuttle is made of rose
wood. |
An antique shuttle made of shellac. I found it at an assets dealer. It has a
beginning work from the former
owner.

These shuttles show, that there were many colors available in former
times, too. |
