Description: Thanks for looking! This is an ancient or possibly even medieval spindle whorl. A spindle whorl is a weighted object fitted to a spindle to help maintain the spindle's speed of rotation while spinning yarn. It typically takes the form of a disk or spherical object, sometimes whorled, normally positioned on the bottom of the spindle. The spinner spins the resulting weighted spindle up to speed, which the whorl maintains, and then slowly pulls the fabric off a mass of fibers which the spindle then twists into yarn. This item is made of lead and is a relatively small size (most were). It was metal detected and exported from Ukraine where is likely belonged to the peoples that had historically inhabited the region. I’m able to combine shipping on multiple orders. If you have any questions feel free to reach out.
