It’s even more beautiful in person. Absolutely GORGEOUS and spins beautifully! You can tell when a spindle is made by someone who actually spins. It’s perfect!

Shipping to Germany was not as straightforward as hoped (due to German customs), but this beauty is worth every day of waiting for it. Works like a charm - so far I was not very happy with spinning on drop spindles, but this carefully crafted spindle makes spinning so much fun! Instant success with creating a very fine, even yarn because the spindle has the perfect weight and spins evenly for a very long time. I just love it!

Wonderful customer service. My shaft chipped during shipping. He replace shafts for free. The spindle itself spins well.
