Vintage Wooden Industrial Textile Spool

A heavy-duty wooden textile spool once used in industrial weaving and spinning operations. Constructed with turned hardwood ends and a cylindrical core, reinforced with Bakelite-like resin flanges and metal fittings. Stamped "11 68" on the base, placing it in late 1968 manufacturing.

These spools were built to withstand constant tension and high-speed machinery, making them both durable and visually compelling. Today, they serve as collectible relics of American millwork, often repurposed for display, decorative risers, or adapted into functional home accents.

Surface wear, patina, and tool marks consistent with decades of industrial use. A tangible artifact of mid-20th century textile production.
