C.S. Osborne Curved Needles

C.S. Osborne manufactures a few different series of pre-curved needles

These needles were designed for upholstery work, but some like them for inseaming and outseaming in place of bristles.

Straight C.S. Osborne harness needles, such as the 517 series, can also be heated and bent.
