Description
FOLK ART – Rare lace-maker’s bobbin holder in walnut
19th-century
The five small columns each feature a different design carved with a knife
The bobbin holder has a built-in drawer in which the boxwood bobbins are stored
Dimensions: approx. 50x27x25cm (arm folded)
How it works: once unfolded, the articulated arm holds the spool of thread, which is attached to the bobbin itself, held between two prongs. The spindle is connected to the wheel by a belt (not shown). Turning the handle winds the thread onto the spindle
