Product description

People used spinning tops like these from the Neolithic period through the 14th century. Archaeologists regularly find spindle parts at Germanic and Viking excavation sites. The spinning wheel only slowly became available in the 13th century. This spindle is a replica of a 9th-century original found in Birka. Made from wood, it features a whorl made from red clay.
