Mini Tibetan Support Spindle with Mini Dimpled Bowl Set

The 1 5/8 inch whorl of this mini Tibetan spindle was crafted from ambrosia maple. The 8 1/2 inch shaft has been crafted from hard maple, and the tip is a gorgeous stabilized box elder. The weight of this beautiful spindle is 0.8 oz. (22 grams).

The accompanying maple mini spindle bowl measures 2 inches in diameter and 1 inch in height, with the dimpled ceramic insert measuring 1 1/2 inches in diameter.

When constructing his spindles, Dave mounts the spindle whorl blank on the shaft, and then turns and shapes the whorl and shaft together to achieve a well balanced spindle.  Additional photos of these handspinning tools can be found in our Etsy shop.

Mini Russian Support Spindle Travel Sets

This is a new item for Grizzly Mountain Arts!  We are excited to introduce our "Mini Russian Support Spindle Travel Set".  The mini Russian spindle included with each set is the same size as our previous hair stick spindles but these are crafted from heavier woods.  The weight of each spindle can be varied by removing the two glass beaded rings.  Also included with each set is a mini ceramic spinning bowl that travels securely in it's zippered pouch.
