    I have these very light, very thin metal templates that I am assuming are for English paper piecing. I have never seen any like them. How old would they be, and where would they have been made. I have had them in my possession for 40 years. I would like to know the history of them.

      These are templates for making quilt pieces and are for different styles of quilts :-) How nice to have in metal so they didn't wear out . Example in plastic .https://www.amazon.com/Acrylic-Patchwork-Template-Quilting-Sewing/dp/B07QX7VW1Y
