    I came across this a week ago going through one of my Moms sewing box. Did not realize at the time, but years ago I was given by my ex's grandma a old sewing box which I then gave to my Mom and we went through and sorted it out. We must have kept these just thinking they were good needles. Now that I am older and realizing antique beauty....the minute I seen these again I knew they were old. I just love the look and can't believe in how great shape they are in for as old as they are, the needles look brand new. However I can not seem to find any info on the internet about them, does anyone know where I might look?
