Chatelaines

Page 1 | Page 2 | Page 3

Chatelaines date back to the Middle Ages. The name comes from a French term for the "mistress of a castle, chateau or large establishment." A Chatelaine is an ornamental clasp or hook from which chains are hung that hold a watch, purse, keys, scissors, thimble case, etc. Modern sewers not only enjoy using these finely crafted tools...they appreciate not having to spend time looking for their scissors while working. 

All chatelaines are necklaces, and unless otherwise noted, they come with Etui scissors.
