Bone Crochet Hook

This crochet hook is my latest find and treasure.

I am assuming it is quite old, possibly Victorian but I honestly couldn't say for sure.

I believe the hook to be crafted from bone, again I couldn't be sure.

The workman ship is fine and the polish is perfect.

This crochet hook feels as though it were used a great deal and was probably some ladies prized tool.

It is just lovely and I am thrilled to add it to my collection. I can't wait to use it!

    This is a beautiful find! I love finding vintage sewing supplies and imagining them being used.

      I started making some mitts with it but they are too big and I'm going to run out of yarn so I've gone back to finishing my Tunisian sampler but I can't wait to make something with this hook. I looove vintage tools.

    Such a lovely hook...and it looks like it'd surely be refreshing to use :)

      I don't know what happened to my original reply, I must not have hit publish. It has a lovely feel when holding it.

    Oh wow! That is lovely! I've just recently started crocheting (within the last couple of years...even though my mom and grandma did it for years, no one bothered to teach me), and none of my hooks are quite that lovely ;)

    thank you for joining us for Photo Friday this past week! Sorry I didn't get to you sooner. It's been a bit hectic around these parts ;)

      My Nanna taught me the basics for knitting but my mum is not that way inclined. I have had to teach myself crochet and I have always wanted an amazing tool like this. I am so thrilled to pieces to have it when I have been lusting after the next best thing, a furls crochet hook, since last year when I discovered them.

      I can't believe your online! Get back to enjoying your house.

      I have, but I ended up frogging the project. I just think I haven't found the right yarn for it yet.
