PRELUDE spinning wheel

The Kromski Prelude is very similar to the Interlude model but with a smaller diameter wheel - which keeps the price down. Gets our vote for best choice budget friendly single foot treadle spinning wheel.

Offers compact portability to those who want a wheel reminiscent of the antique Saxony style but need the convenience of a smaller, transportable wheel. It comes with a built-In Lazy Kate with a 2 bobbin capacity, 3 standard bobbins (120g/4.2oz capacity), spinning wheel oil and an orifice threading Hook.

When your new wheel arrives you'll need to unpack and self assemble it following the instructions provided. We offer an assembly service on collected orders - why not stay for a private lesson at the same time!

Finish options...

This model comes from the factory left as natural untreated wood. It is a good idea to wax all of the wooden parts (prior to assembly is best) to protect from finger marks and enhance the wood grain. Choose the custom waxed option above we will do that for you!

Other factory applied finishes including Walnut, Varnished and mahogany are shown in the Kromski catalogue and can be ordered at additional cost.
