Support Spindle – Apple Shaft & Pear Whorl, 28 cm / 11″, 34 g + Lap Bowl

Powerful, smooth, and designed for extended spinning, this artisan support spindle set features a sturdy apple wood shaft paired with a dense pear wood whorl, completed with a pear and mulberry lap support bowl for maximum comfort and stability.

At 34 grams, this spindle delivers strong momentum, making it ideal for medium to heavy yarns, longwools, alpaca blends, rustic fibers, and confident plying. The longer 28 cm (11″) length provides generous reach and a steady, controlled spin path, perfect for spinners who enjoy slow, sustained rotation.

The lap support bowl offers a wide, stable base, allowing long spin times with minimal interruption. Pear contributes smoothness at the spinning surface, while mulberry adds warmth, durability, and visual contrast.

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