Product Details:

Medieval Pewter Whorls and Spindles

These pewter whorls are based on 13th to 15th century lead spindle whorls found in English museums and private collections. They weigh approximately 24 grams (less than 1 oz.). and diameter is 1". They are cast just like they used to be, but made of safe (no lead) pewter. The whorls come with a descriptive card and are available with a 9" hand-finished (stained, oiled and waxed) hardwood shaft with a carved notch on top, similar to what would have been used in the Middle Ages.
