I recently picked up a Faudel London that is very much like this. Most info, threading, shuttle, etc can be found under Frister and Rossman and on youtube. It takes a special needle & I had to order from Ebay. Mine has the peacock decal & works very nice. I figure it to be made abt 1903. One of the Mother of Pearl inlays is missing and has been filled in with some sort of putty. I had never seen a transverse shuttle before, I will try to load a pic
