That is so nice to have someone's last bobbins. I'm very lucky to have Sally Reason's last bobbins that she painted. They are very very special to me and I can't bring myself to use them yet.

Sadly Richard Ives stopped making lace bobbins a few years ago now, he gave
the last few of his remaining stock to me a couple of years ago when he and
Jenny had a tidy up at home. He was the first bobbin maker that I got to
know when I first took up lacemaking in the 80's and I have always loved his
bobbins, so beautifully slim, elegant and a fabulous finish to them. Richard
was also President of Suffolk Lacemakers for many years - Suffolk Lacemakers
are celebrating their 30th Anniversary this year.

Does anyone know if Richard Ives is still making bobbins and if so what his
current contact details are?

I tried the email address I had from 2004 and it bounced.
