Ashford Handicrafts Ltd

In 1934, Walter Ashford founded Ashford Handicrafts Ltd, which is now recognised worldwide as a leading manufacturer of the highest quality spinning wheels, looms and textile equipment. Since the company's inception, Ashford and their dedicated team have manufactured over 900,000 spinning wheels and looms, demonstrating a strong tradition of craftsmanship and innovation.

With almost a century of experience, Ashford Handicrafts Ltd continues to set the standard within the textile industry, delivering products that combine functionality, durability and aesthetics.

Sustainable products with a focus on quality and ease of use

Using the finest beech wood from sustainably managed forests, certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), Ashford's spinning wheels, looms and carding machines are the result of more than 90 years of expertise, extensive customer feedback and ongoing research and development.

Available in either natural wood or with an environmentally friendly water-based varnish that ensures both durability and aesthetics, the products are designed with a focus on simplicity, easy assembly and usability, making them a pleasure to work with.

At the spinning mill in Milton, New Zealand, the highest quality wool fibers are transformed into beautiful colors and luxurious blends.
