This early American great wheel spinning wheel dates to the mid-19th century and beautifully showcases the craftsmanship of its time. The sculptural form features a wide drive wheel with finely turned spokes, supported on a narrow bench with splayed legs and a slender upright distaff. Its natural wood finish has developed a rich, time-worn patina that reflects both age and authenticity. Once used for hand-spinning wool and flax, this wheel now makes a striking decorative statement — perfect as a focal point in a farmhouse, historic home, or rustic-inspired interior.
