Support Spindle – Apple Shaft & Walnut Whorl, 28.5 cm / 11.2″, 29 g + Lap Bowl

Elegant, stable, and designed for extended spinning, this artisan support spindle set features a smooth apple wood shaft paired with a dense walnut wood whorl, completed with a walnut and chestnut lap support bowl for maximum comfort and control.

At 29 grams, this spindle offers excellent momentum while remaining versatile, making it ideal for medium yarns, longwools, alpaca blends, rustic fibers, and relaxed plying. The longer 28.5 cm (11.2″) length provides generous reach and a steady, powerful spin path, especially appreciated by spinners who enjoy long drafting.

The lap support bowl provides a wide, stable base that allows longer spin times with fewer interruptions. Walnut adds durability and weight, while chestnut contributes warmth and visual contrast, creating a functional and beautiful spinning surface.

Each piece is handmade in the Kravelli workshop in Georgia and finished with natural oils and beeswax for a silky, fiber-safe surface.
