Now that you mention it I have seen something like these in possession of some of my fashion design oriented friends.

Sorta like an overgrown Bedazzler.

I know just the woman to ask! :::: scurrying to ask her ::::

The skinny girl wearing a weird hairstyle, sky blue tutu and ankle boots says she'll give it look and get back to me.

Hopefully that 'look' won't involve Gaultier.

Darnit!

The skinny girl wearing a weird hairstyle, sky blue tutu and ankle boots doesn't recognize 'em.

Oh well. So far grommet thingy seems the best guess. Followed closely by super sized countersink.

I have something, I don't need or have any idea what it is, how it's used, where it comes from BUT,

I think I'll put it on ebay, and I bet I can get a $100.00 for it.

I have absolutely no idea what they are but they are the nicest set of them I have ever seen.

Ah yes! The joy that limited exposure allows when exposed to something new!:D

Not that you have limited exposure.

Hey! After all they are so rare we(all but one) had to guess what they were. Not only that, but a complete set to boot.

Unfortunately the buyer audience is extremely small.

Cajones? Dreamer more like it!
