Named spindles are spindles that have something special, something that makes me need to give it a name. they are usually made of something super special.
This is a Tibetan-style spindle, you will receive the one in these photos.
This heirloom quality spinning tool is an original designed and made by Jory Freyee in the workshop of The Spindle Shop.
The spindle shaft is made from Dymondwood for strength, stability and long service life. The spindle tip is made from an insert of hard grade titanium for extreme long life. This design is very fast and light with an excellent spin and thin flicking tip.
Your spindle is finished to a smooth surface, polished with a french polish and then a final gloss of carnauba wax for a long lasting shine and protection.
The support tip has a fine smooth point for long spins. The flicking tip is slender and allows good speeds to be attained with ease. This spindle has a high speed spin, long sustain and excellent balance.
Your spindle is checked for quality and spin before despatch and comes with tip protectors.
