Harmony Drop Spindle by Kaituna- Hand made in Beech and Indian Rosewood for hand spinning of yarn

It's a nice spindle for the price. I intend to use them for a class I'm teaching, as a basic beginning spindle for my students. It's attractive for the price. I wish the hook wasn't glued in, because it would be nice to be able to turn it slightly to be faced away from the notch on the whorl, but that's not a huge problem. Do I like my hand-crafted, perfectly balanced, $70 spindles more? Sure. But for someone just trying out this craft who may not be ready to commit, it's a good choice.

The Spindle arrived on 23 Dec leaving plenty of time to be wrapped for Christmas and placed under the tree. The Spindle arrived and I didn't see it out of the box until this morning. The packaging was very pretty and the spindle itself is a true work of art - just beautiful as well as functional. I really appreciate the quality of the spindle and the effort taken by the Kaituna folks to get it to me quickly and in such good shape. If you are looking for a very attractive, unusual and functional drop spindle I would recommend this one.

The glue that holds it to the wand seems to disappeared. Still works but the top part slides off the wand .

Have been a spinner for 15+ years now, have many spindles and spinning wheel. This came in a lovely carry bag and that's one reason why i llike it..i can take it with me and carry fibre for spinning in the bag with it. has a nice long spin balance to it and hook is centered over shaft. Actually got me back into "spin mode" again. decent price, nice looking piece.

Completely unbalanced. Does not spin evenly at all. If you look carefully it is crooked.

Really beautiful and sturdy spindle with a lovely finish. Good weight. Comes in a beautiful, exotic looking organza pouch perfect for storage and gifting. I would by this product again from this vendor and I recommend the Harmony Drop Spindle.

I bought this as a surprise for my girlfriend after her old spindle broke. Very fast shipping, and the product itself is beautiful and works even better/faster than her old drop spindle. I would definitely recommend buying this for yourself or someone else.

I've never spindles before, so I can't yet comment on how it works. My sponsoring friends who will be teaching me, however, say it's excellent quality. I love the feel and lines of it.
