This lovely Tibetan style supported spindle design is an heirloom quality item designed for a lifetime of use. The photos show one very similar you will will receive. Hand turned in 2018 by Jory Freyee with design and assistance by master craftsman Malcolm Fielding in the workshops of the SpindleShop, Queensland, Australia. 100% Australian made, no parts are outsourced or made on copying machines. All products are tested and quality controlled
The top point is a slender taper to a narrow point to allow the yarn to slip the tip easily. The bottom point is well defined and designed for an effortless long spin. A support bowl is needed for using this type of spindle. I also offer support bowls on this website and can make one to order if there are none in stock.
The spindle is polished with a high shine French polish and a final gloss of carnauba wax adds durability.
All my spindles are tested before despatch and come with a free sample of our lovely fibres.
