This is an antique Lithuanian spinning wheel's spool flyer. It is one of the main parts of spinning wheel which is an ancient machine that turned fibers into thread or yarn, which were then woven into cloth on a loom. Since there were many different variations of spinning wheels manufactured throughout the history, it is not always easy to find matching spool for your saxon style (horizontal) spinning wheel. Thus we offer you spool flyer with its fame so you can be sure that spool spins freely. Check the measurements of frame below and whether it would fit your spinning wheel.
We will add additional 2 pcs. spool flyers that fits your chosen set. Since these are most fragile parts of any spinning wheel, you won't have to worry about replacement and whether it would fit your set.
NOTE: we will send item in two separate packages to save you on shipping cost. When separated, items fit to 'small package' category which is a lot cheaper than standard package. If you wish to receive only one package, we can do that. Just contact us after your purchase. But be informed that shipping cost would be 10USD higher.
