Historical Haberdashery
Step into the past with our historical haberdashery –
Our historical haberdashery is dedicated to providing accurate, high-quality sewing notions and decorative elements for the reconstruction of garments from the Viking Age through the English Civil War. With a focus on authenticity and period-specific detail, our collection supports historical costumers, living historians, reenactors, and researchers engaged in the study and recreation of early medieval to 17th-century material culture.
We offer a carefully sourced range of items including reproduction pewter and brass buttons, hand-forged pins, linen and wool threads, tablet-woven braids, silk ribbons, and decorative trims appropriate to Northern Europe from c. 600 to 1650. Each product is chosen based on archaeological evidence, period artwork, or surviving examples in museum collections.
Our haberdashery aims to actively bridge the gap between historical research and practical application. Our products not only equip makers with tools for garment construction but also help illuminate the cultural and social context of dress in these periods.
Whether you research, teach, reenact, or create, our haberdashery supports your commitment to accurate, meaningful historical work. We invite you to explore our collection and bring the past to life—one stitch at a time.
