Hand-made 6mm Primitive Rug Hooking Hook
Hand-made 6mm Primitive Rug Hooking Hook
I have carried these hooks for many years but now, the maker has retired so my supplier will be in search of a new maker. The hooks I have now are all I will have for now and when they’re gone, they’re gone, until a new maker is found.
This hook is Midwest made by a skilled artisan to give rug hookers the "Ritchie" imported hook that had been produced in England, but are no longer available. It has a nice, substantial handle with a stainless steel 6mm shaft of the hook. It is very light by comparison to some of the larger brass shaft hooks. The overall length of the palm-held shorter hook is about 5". The hook weighs about an ounce.
This 6mm hook have a hardwood handle with a fine but distinct grain and is $61.00. Please feel free to ask questions prior to ordering.
The 6mm size has a distinct color from the purple heart hardwood and the wood grain is unique with some banding.
Thanks!
The grouping of the four 6mm hooks show some of the types of handles available. The tone of the wooden handles varies, as you can see. Please any questions you might have before ordering. The sizes of the hooks vary from 4&3/8” to 4&1/2” for the pencil hook. Thanks!
