Drop Spindle – A timeless tool with deep roots
The drop spindle is a historical spinning tool that can be traced all the way back to the Bronze Age and even further back in history. The basic principle and design have remained remarkably unchanged throughout time.
Originally, the spindle whorl was often made of fired clay. The whorl acted as a flywheel and gave the spindle the necessary weight and stability so that it could rotate smoothly and maintain the twist in the yarn.
This simple yet effective tool has played a central role in the development of textile production and testifies to human ingenuity in combining functionality with craftsmanship.
