Vintage and Decorative Collection Part 2

Golding “Vintage and Decorative RingSpindles” are one-of-a-kind spindles made with rings other than the standard bronze alloy ring that surrounds the whorl, and/or with decorative whorl insets. Most of the ring collection is of vintage stock, made from a variety of unique and interesting materials:

etched sterling silver
etched brass
etched copper
mother of pearl
turquoise
cloisonne
horn
bone
abalone
malachite
needlepoint

With the weight still on the outer circumference in the form of a ring, these spindles spin as well as the ones made with the bronze alloy ring, and with such an extensive collection of rings and decorative insets the artistic possibilities are endless.

The whorls are made from black walnut, cherry, linden, ebony, butternut, or purpleheart. Many of the wooden whorls have designs that are finely scrolled and handcarved by either Tom or Seth, or are handpainted by artist Jan Elliott. Whorls may have decorative insets of turquoise, sterling silver, handpainted Russian lacquer, Damascene, Italian micro-mosaic, and many other materials to choose from.

How to Order:
Use the “add to cart” button for spindles that are currently available for sale.

While most of the “Vintage and Decorative Spindles are one-of-a-kind, we may have materials available to make a spindle that’s similar to one that’s been sold. You can contact Tom at 1-800-710-1872 or email him, and he’ll email you photos of similar rings and/or insets to choose from. An order will take approximately 2-3 weeks to complete.
