This Tahkli (Style) Support Spindle is made with a 1.13” diameter polished Chrome Alloy Whorl (disc) and is adorned on top and bottom with matching turquoise (Howlite) discs, silver plated bead caps, and silver plated findings. The turquoise discs are mounted with a full layer of epoxy spanning the seam between the discs and alloy center whorl to prevent chipping and cracks. The shaft is hand-made from spring steel with a heat forged hook that is coated with a 2-coat hi-temperature powder-coat paint. All parts are mounted with industrial 2-part epoxy. This is a medium weight Tahkli style spindle and it spins fast and long – making it great for not only cotton, but other short staple fibers.

This is a beautiful item which spins wonderfully. I would have liked a better hook on top, but it really is a quality product regardless. It was delivered fast and carefully wrapped. Thank you


So pretty and spins like a dream!


Meine erste Spindel - und ich bin total begeistert! Ich habe sofort zu spinnen begonnen und wunderschöne Wolle gezaubert. John ist ein hervorragender Künstler und macht wunderschöne, zauberhafte Schmuckstücke. Seine Spindel freuen die Augen, drehen sich sehr gut und sind auch für Anfänger wie mich sehr gut geeignet. Die Lieferung, obwohl auf andere Kontinent, erfolgte sehr schnell. Alles war sehr liebevoll verpackt mit vielen zusätzlichen Extras. John, danke sehr dafür! Gerne wieder... Alicja


A work of art from Tahkuli spindle! It's very beautiful and I'm happy to have a spindle that spins well for a long time. Thank you very much.
