Millinery needles are comparatively longer than conventional hand sewing needles and are exceptionally suited for sewing firmer material such as in costume-making and millinery. Due to the fact that the stitches must generally be applied as invisibly as possible, this application requires a fine and long needle. These needles are made of hardened steel and have a burr-free embossed golden or silver eye. Their fine, polished tip and the evenly-coated surface slide well through the material, while the balanced spring stiffness ensures ideal use elasticity. The Prym assortment carries millinery needles as a 16-unit assortment packaging on a cardboard package in sizes no. 5-10 with a golden eye and also as an envelope with 25 units each in sizes no. 7 and 9 with a silver eye.
