Description
This wooden weaving shuttle is a quietly remarkable survivor from 1954 — a well-made Swedish craft tool that has been kept whole and honest for over seventy years. The carved wooden body is solid in the hand, with metal-tipped ends and a brass thermometer plate set into the body. It carries the markings Klub Masterskap and an ABW badge, giving it a clear identity and date.
Whether it served a weaving guild, a workshop, or a competition setting, the combination of functional tool and built-in thermometer makes it an unusual and appealing object — equally at home in a textile or craft collection, displayed in a workshop, or used as a conversation piece in an interior with character.
