- Burnishing Edges: A selection of metal tools designed to smooth and finish the edges of leather products.
- Thread Nippers: Small, sharp clippers with a decorative handle, used for snipping thread ends.
- Sewing Palms: A protective leatherworking tool worn on the hand to aid in hand-stitching through tough materials.
- Needle Files: These slender metal files are for refining holes and smoothing small areas on leatherworks.
- Crochet Hooks: Not traditionally for leather, these hooks may have been used for intricate detailing or working with thinner, softer leathers.
Usage: These tools can serve a variety of purposes: they can be used by leather craftsmen who appreciate the character of vintage tools, by collectors of artisan paraphernalia, or by decorators seeking to add a rustic touch to a workshop or studio space.
Condition: Each tool carries the marks and patina of use, which adds to the authenticity and charm of the collection. The metal elements show signs of oxidation, and the wooden handles have a worn smoothness from handling, indicative of their age and use. The overall condition is good, with each piece intact and retaining its original functionality.
