White Spring Steel Bones and Spiral Bones

Farthingales in Stratford is famous for their high quality bones for corsets. The white steel boning, a.k.a. spring steel, flexes only forward and backward, not side to side, and are appropriate for the center backs of corsets where support is needed on either side of the grommets. Spiral steel bones flex in every direction and are ideal for dance and theatrical costumes where a full range of motion is required. Be sure to read the descriptions of each to determine which bone is the best for your purposes. Hand wash or dry clean, never machine wash.

              11mm (1/2") European White Spring Steel Corset Bones - Several Lengths

              These wider White Spring Steel Bones are used to support corsets, evening wear bodices and bridal dresses. They also work well for the well boned Elizabethan bodice or Renaissance Faire bodice. You need fewer bones when using this wider style metal stay. This is also a great bone for the Rubanesque woman, as it not only offers good support, the casings are more in proportion to a scaled up bodice. 1/2" wide x .014 cm thick, choose your length from the drop-down menu. 

              These are the German Wissner bones, so they won't rust and don't crimp.
