FAQs

Traditional Indian spinning wheels, or charkhas, played a central role in the domestic textile economy and cultural history of the subcontinent, particularly during the independence movement.

These functional objects were typically constructed using native hardwoods such as teak, sheesham, or mango wood, often reinforced with hand-forged iron bands and fittings.

Authenticity is determined by surface patination, hand-tooled joinery, tool marks, wear patterns consistent with manual use, and the natural oxidisation of any metal components.

Mounted on a custom display stand, it functions as a sculptural focal point in a study, hallway, or living space, adding historical texture and organic form to contemporary schemes.

Preservation requires keeping the object away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity levels, occasionally treating the timber with microcrystalline wax to protect the dry surface.
