Laces and points are essential items of dress for both men and women, and these are the best you can buy! They are all finished at both ends with handmade brass aiglets which are firmly fixed onto the lace with iron rivets. The aiglets are beautifully crafted with a smooth finish which makes threading the lace or point through an eyelet hole as easy as can be. Perfect for Tudor and Elizabethan reenactments or other fancy dress costumes.
This listing is for short points for trussing doublets and hose/tights. (We also offer longer laces for fastening bodices or corsets. Please see our other listings for laces.)
The deerskin used for these handmade laces has been through a tanning process very close to the oil/alum tawing process used in the 16th century. The results are soft, flexible laces that can hold a tight half-bow whilst being surprisingly strong. These laces get better and better the more they are used!
This listing is for a set of 12 points which are 12 inches (30 cm) long and come in a natural cream deerskin colour.
