- Author Sarah A. Chrisman talks about Victorian chatelaines and the roles they play in her historical fiction series, "The Tales of Chetzemoka". Be sure to check out Sarah's books by going to www.amazon.com...
You haven't put up a vid in a while. As a fellow Victorian enthusist this a very informative. I can't find any chatelaines here in Australia, not affordable ones anyhow
I love chatelaines so much. It hits all the right buttons is what tickles me.
I'm especially fascinated by the reusable note sheets some chatelaines had
These probably originated with the small wax tablets hung from a belt in Roman times. When you had finished transcribing the notes onto a more permamant form the wax was warmed and smoothed over ready for the next time. A small stylus was carried to write in the wax with.
I love the valuable information you share. We as people, have lost that history of ourselves and the things that make us who we are. I appreciate so much your sharing with us the richness and fun history of how you write your books, but, also of what we were like long ago.
The Lady of the house is BACK!!! YES!!!
I am slowly amending my sewing chatelaine that I purchased off eBay. It had a scissors and thread cutter, as well as some cute charms already on it. For a pin ‘cushion’, I fashioned one out of a very cheap pocket watch I bought (it had a picture of Big Ben and the iconic red double-decker bus of London as the watch face). It did not keep time well, so I removed the movement from the watch face, glued the watch face to the inside back of the watch. Now it has room to hold pins and I can still press the stem to open the watch crystal to access my pins. And now I have a fun pin cushion to enjoy!
Thank You for this great information!!! As a Historical Consultant and one who lives a Victorian lifestyle too, I find your books and web site very enjoyable.
This channel really inspired my home decor choices for my 1904 Forty Thieves house made from scavenged bricks from the 1904 World’s Fair in Saint Louis
This is pretty neat information, thanks for sharing! ^^ love your dress btw!
Best video on chatelaines I’ve seen!
I have a chatelaine but it is a modern replica from 18th century ....there was a line of chatelaine tools that came out ......called ELIZABETHS VINTAGE NOTIONS ....put out by the company called DRITZ.....they were really nice ...and they came out with a chatelaine and various tools that went with it ...they were ornate as well as practical ...they had a whole line for example ....thimble,thimble holder,wheel pincushion ,needle holder with needles ,seamripper ,magnetic needle book,tracing wheel,ribbon threaders,scissor holder,magnifying glass ,needle threader ,measuring tape, etc... each tool came with a veleteen pouch to store it .as well as the matching chatelaine that went with it .......you can also get sterling silver replicas as well ...and if you have the means maybe you can purchase the real antique chatelaine with the tools .....another thing ... is what they call a ETUI or what they call NECESSAIRE...which is a collection of sewing tools ...what the person who did embroidery,needlepoint or sewing ...there are lots of different ornately designed embroidery scissors ,thimbles ,etc ..that you can purchase for a fairly reasonable price ....you can try ebay , aliexpress ,etc ....to find some of them ...from antiques to 18th century replicas to modern styles ,etc ...i hope this helps
Thank you for this information, I am so intrigued by chatelaines and the history. I just subscribed.
How useful Chatelaines were! I had no idea what a Chatelaine was before, except the Magazine by the same name. I wish I had one!! It would be so handy! I learned so much from your tutorial, Sarah! Thank you so much! I look forward to seeing your video about Chatelaines part 2!! ~Janet in Canada
mastersadvocate Check out eBay. I found a cute sewing chatelaine for a reasonable price. It is not an antique, as those cost considerably more.
Thank You!
You both hawe been such a great inspiration to me, my home, and my life! I love the project so much!
Oh my!!! Now I am on a mission to find a chatelaine!!! I absolutely adore that you have your great grandmother-in-law’s thimble. So special.
I have my great grandmother’s eyeglasses which I display near her photo wherein she is wearing them.
Fascinating!
I've used a chatelaine for decades that loops around my neck like a lanyard. It's main purpose is for sewing/mending; holding snips, pins, a pin cushion and thimble. I made it myself using even weave fabric and ribbon. The 'lapels' and pin cushion are cross stitched. I only wear it when stitching as in cross stitching, hand sewing, etc. It keeps everything handy.
I just found your channel… how fun and interesting! Now I’m going to design and create a personal chatelaine! Thanks!
I can tell you must be a good writer just from the construction of your narration of this video. Thanks for teaching me about chatelaines; now I want one. Haha because I dress in regular clothes from 2022 so it would look somewhat strange. I almost feel like it's a woman's Leatherman.
For several decades when I was younger I used to dress as close as possible to an Edwardian style, corset and all. For many years my sister looked everywhere for a Chatelaine for me as I could use it for not only sewing but for having things on hand for running a house; like a mailbox key, house key, and a small notebook. Unfortunately, everything was outrageously out of her price range. One Christmas we as a family didn't have much money so we were to wrap pictures of what we wanted to buy each other if we did have the money. She gave me a box of pictures of chatelaines.I loved it. Soon after that Joannes came out in their stock with a very cheaply made set of Chatelain pieces (still expensive for the quality of the pieces). I got a few pieces but some of them broke or didn't stay closed like the needle holder. Next week I get my new leg and I can't wait to learn to walk with it. We moved to a new town and I am looking forward to looking at the antique stores and thrift shops in town. I love your videos of the chatelains. They are very informative. Thank you.
This video came at such the right time, it's almost serendipitous! I'm a huge DIYer, and I've been looking up chatelaines to get ideas of what to put on my own when I get it made. I'm also a CNA, so I wasn't surprised that a nurse's chatelaine would have to be so extensive. Lol These days, they've been replaced by scrub pockets. My coworkers and I carry a ridiculous amount of things in our pockets. No less than 4 pens (they tend to grow legs and walk off), manicure sticks, sharpies, bandaids, pocketknife, chapstick, even the occasional trash bag!
Thank you so much for this informative and delightful video. In Joy
I recently saw a video where the centimeter side was along the fabric edge and the slot in the middle was used to mark a perfect 1/4’ seam allowance.
Great video I enjoyed it can't wait to see more soon your videos are always enjoyable 😀
Ooohh... how I covet my own chatelaine..... 😍 You look lovely in your blue dress by the way!
I love your videos 💕
Hi Sarah, from France ! I love your videos and the way you are so natural and how you explain victorian way of life, I've watched several of your videos, it is inspiring, thanks! I hope to read one of your book one day, ♡ Anne-Sophie
Living history. Love it!
charming and informative. didn't know anything of matter about topic and i'v been around for centurys....
I had no idea about these, but they are beautiful! Wish I needed items on me so I could wear one 😂
Fascinating! Chatelaines remind me of a lady's version of a leatherman.
Wow! That would look great with my Victorian bustle skirt and steampunk. Costumes.
How cute are these guys 💕
Loved this vid. That’s probably why that Magazine is called Chatelaine, I thought it was someone’s last name or a French word for something but now I see it has Victorian and medieval roots! People probably have no idea.
I love nurse McCoy! We all need a nurse McCoy in our lives!
I developed arthritis in my back and I got one of these lovely tools. It made things so much more simple. The key is s pacific to Norway. It’s been a part of the Bunad from the 1840s.
Very fascinating history... praise the Lord!

How great! I'm in the Society for Creative Anachronisms, so our "Chatelaines" are the people who hold the keys to the society for newcomers, teaching them and guiding them in their foray into history. But since my "mundane" out of society life is skewing more and more 19th century by the day, I really ought to look into making or buying myself a chatelaine.
Thanks Sarah for this video, im a man but want to wear one to help with the daily chores around our smallholding, take care all
Where do you find these? Very nice!
I live in the same town and I remember you smiling at me in the store. I really want to do the same thing as you when I can❤️
