Hickory stripe evolved out of ticking, the striped fabric used to cover mattresses and pillows for centuries. The name comes from hickory wood, prized for its strength, toughness, and resistance to splitting. Good marketing for workwear. By the late 19th century it made its way onto the railroads and was eventually adopted across many other heavy-labor trades. The stripe hid dirt, grease, and soot. The tight cotton twill was durable against rough working conditions.

I’ve always been drawn to utilitarian pieces. Things made for a specific purpose by people who weren’t thinking about legacy, just function. The object wasn’t precious. The work it aided was the point.

This simple shoulder bag is exactly that. Selvedge construction, structured bottom, interior tool pockets for a specialized trade. It wasn’t made to be preserved. Somehow this one was anyway.

Counted the stones once. Lost track. Started over. Still not sure.

This vintage Zuni petit point turquoise cluster ring just found a temporary home in the display case along with a few other gems.

Thankfully the US Navy keeps good service records. Robert Kyle Hunt, Motor Machinist’s Mate aboard the USS LSM-473, carried this kit bag through the final push toward Japan in 1944-45. Landing Ship Mediums were built to do one of the most dangerous jobs in the Pacific, beaching themselves directly on enemy shores to deploy tanks, vehicles, and troops under fire. His job was keeping the General Motors diesels running through heavy surf and combat conditions. He made it home to Greencastle, Indiana, where he lived until 1999. The bag outlasted him and found its way to a little shop in Newberg, Oregon and I’m so glad it did.
