Handmade Victorian Stepped River Reed Floats

Handmade Victorian River Reed Floats

These are very neat little floats, made in the victorian stepped reed style. I make them with nicely mottled and dark coloured reed that has been under floodwater for a couple of years which has a wonderful ingrained patina.  I thread them in black silk and usually make the tips from Balsa and stems from porcupine quill but i can just as easy use goose quill or cane as an alternative option.
