Rainbow Drop Spindle, 2.6 ounces, Unicorn

Handmade original top whorl rainbow drop spindle made by Point of View Farm. I love to drop spindle and I wanted a pretty spindle to work with and this idea was born. Kristy Glass bought one for herself and her daughter. I have taught beginners on this spindle design. The colors are vibrant and these spindles have so much going on to enjoy.

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 course of use. The hardwood shaft is individually hand turned and then fit to the individual whorl.

This particular spindle weighs 2.6 ounces and about 9.5 inches in overall height. I have called this one Unicorn.
