And I had to hunt for the missing tatted ring in the one medallion as it's certainly not obvious in the variegated thread. And 11 rather than 12 chains look natural.<br /><br />Glad you added more tatted items to your new header. (I knew you would!) The Milward/Aero shuttle mystery continues! I still find it amazing that they were made near you! I just took the Aero shuttles for granted and wish I had purchased more of them. They were beautifully made. I am grateful, though, for the Aerlits.

I do know that the factory (Milwards/Aero) burnt down and that the moulds were sent to Aero Germany.

Then a year or so went by and spotted another black one and then red, this time around they were not the same plastic and very new and the plastic was not the same and the side kind of cut your hands cause the edge was made little cheaper I too wondered this is not same company? Yet looks the same I never bought anymore.
