We can vary tailpiece lengths, peg taper and shank diameter, so your set-up will be exactly as you need it.For any other information please telephone 01969 624643 and ask to speak to Georgina Keays.
On this site you will also find useful information about Boxwood staining, including a section to help with staining ivory mounted fittings. Mammoth Ivory is very difficult to obtain, expensive, and not always satisfactory in use. At the moment all references to the use of Mammoth Ivory on our fittings should be taken to mean a suitable Ivory substitute.
