(NO OTHER ITEMS AVAILABLE THRU THIS SITE)

Once Mike has what he needs set up & in place, customers will be directed to the new Bellinger website & ordering platform. Until then, we ask for your patience & continued support.

You may contact Mike at mike@mcfarlandrods.com if you have any questions &/or you may also still email thru this website or to info@genuinebellinger.com

Description
Required products

Pearsall’s pure silk is specially formulated from Chinese Bombyx raw silk that is scoured and hand dyed to meet the demands of the most discriminating rod builders. Unfortunately, Pearsall's has stopped making this silk we sell, so supplies are dwindling, with quite limited - or in some cases, no further availability.

A spool is 45-50 meters

Gossamer thread is ONLY available in Jasper. Naples thread is available in Antique Gold, Black, Classic Chestnut, Java Brown, Royal Hunt (Salmon), Scarlet and Straw.

If you order 12 or more spools of any one color, you will automatically see the price discounted in your cart.

CLOSING OUT SPECIAL - 'TIL INVENTORY IS GONE. $100/DOZEN (must be same color per dozen)! Further discounts off 5+ dozen, any/all colors - as long as same color per dozen. Email info@genuinebellinger.com with what you want & we'll get back to you with discounts. Bigger, better discounts for more purchased.
