Rainbow Drop Spindle, 2.3 ounces, Undersea

Handmade original top whorl rainbow drop spindle made by Point of View Farm. I love to drop spindle. They are portable and fun. I wanted a pretty spindle to work with and this idea was born. Kristy Glass bought one for herself and one for her daughter. I think we all like to have nice tools to work with.

The whorl is resin which is colored carefully by hand, then turned on a lathe to balance. It will handle the bumps that drop spindles receive in the normal course of use. The hardwood shaft is individually hand turned and then fit to the individual whorl.

This particular spindle weighs 2.3 ounces and about 9.5 inches in overall height. I have called this one Undersea.
