WEIGHT: 1.8oz. (52g), WHORL: 1.98” (50mm) dia., SHAFT: .133” (3.3mm) dia. X 8.25” (20.1cm)
Made from a total of 88 individual pieces, this is my most complicated and favorite design to date - and it is an exceptionally well balanced/heavier weight support spindle with plenty of weight to keep it spinning - for use with a wide variety of finer and long staple fibers. The design features a gorgeous golden plated Vegvisir (Norse/Viking Compass) coin - along with an acrylic disc with 70 Rainbow color Preciosa Czech crystal rhinestones, a faceted Black-AB coated glass "Cosmic Ring" with a gold plated medallion covering 8 additional Swarovski Crystal Volcano rhinestones mounted inside the ring, and finally multiple findings and multi crystal spacers - all mounted to a metallic Silver colored steel shaft. The shaft is made of high-carbon/spring steel with a heat forged hook, and it is coated with an industrial quality 2-part (color/gloss) powder coat paint. All components are assembled with an industrial quality 2-part epoxy resin for long life
