These are the "Swedish-Style" with elegant sweeping ends from Bluster Bay Shuttles.
Each shuttle is a handmade creation. Each is finished until it is silky-smooth. These treasured shuttles deserve a place by your loom.
Choose from 8" or 10" Swedish-Style shuttles or a 14" overall length -each uses a 3.5" quill. Or choose 12", 14", 16" or 18" each using 5" quills. There are closed bottom only and are only 11/16" tall.
A variety of hardwoods are used to make these shuttles so we ship what is available at the time. With a craftsman's eye, they select the wood for each shuttle, then carefully cut each shuttle to expose to best color and grain. Sanding is a long and careful process ending with a finish of satin smoothness that is sealed with Danish oil. After drying several days, each shuttle is hand buffed with steel wool, waxed, then buffed again.
