@littleblossomdarling: do you know busks were such an important part of the function of corsets? busks are interestingly- a very common piece of scrimshaw which was folk art made by sailors and whalers, who given how long sea journeys could be- would often make beautiful intricate art from various whale bones and baleen. and then would be given to their lovers upon finally returning home! #LearnOnTikTok #fashionhistory #corset

I read a historical vampire novel where the main character who was a vampire hunter kept a wooden stake in place of a busk 😍

have you ever watched the green valley/historical farm series? it's not just farming, they cover the day to day clothing worn by farmers and ruth Goodman mentioned a busk she saw in a collection that said something along the lines of "to my dear sister, don't break this one!"

I think one of my favourite facts I've ever learned about busks was one that was carved by a brother to his sister. it said something to the effect of "dont break this one"

julian :
since some busks are metal, would it be possible to freeze them before putting them into the corset so they have a cooling effect on the wearer? or is there too much fabric to have any impact?

Huh. I wonder if the etymological history of the word "busking" (as in street performing) is completely unrelated? 🤔
