Reed Discount - We are now offering a 30% discount on a mixed size order of 100 pounds or more. The reed must be of one type. Ordering 100 pounds or more of Flat Reeds would drop the price to: $4.87 per coil (also available for 100 pounds of Flat Oval or 100 pounds of Round Reed). Let your Guild members or friends know and place one order together to receive the discount!
This new discount will not show in the on-line catalog, but will be adjusted during invoicing.
Please Note: Due to rising inflation, manufacturing and shipping costs, the cost of materials and products is rising, often with no warning. We never increase our prices unless our supplier increases the product prices. Some price increases we can absorb, some we can not. Prices are subject to change without notice. New prices will be noted in the monthly newsletters. The on-line catalog is always current. Thank you for understanding.

See our Classes Page for our Open Weave Days - next date: February 12th (11 - 3).
