Product description
This medieval thread reel, named "London," is crafted from a piece of acacia wood and features a smooth, polished surface with decorative ring patterns.
The design of this reel is inspired by a historical model from London dated 1200-1400, with ring decorations around its circumference, making it both attractive and easy to handle. The ends of the reel are tapered, allowing it to hold shorter pieces of thread securely.
The medieval thread reel measures 8 x 3 cm. It is thus significantly shorter than the historical model with a length of 14 cm. Historical finds of thread spools from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance indicate that these objects were common in medieval households. Rural thread reels were often larger and could hold multiple threads, while shorter, more compact spools were less frequent.
