Corsets were called stays prior to 1830 and antique treen stay busks were flat pieces of wood,( could also be made from horn, ivory, metal, baleen or other materials), which were inserted into long pockets at the front of the stay/corset.

Antique treen stay busks are beautiful examples of folk art, traditionally worn in the front of a woman's corset to provide structure and posture. Often carved by sailors or suitors from hard woods, these pieces were frequently decorated with hearts and initials as intimate love tokens. It is incredible to see how such a functional garment stiffener was transformed into a deeply personal work of art!
