Vermont Wheels

Treat yourself to an heirloom that spins like good chocolate melts in your mouth!

Each of these hand-crafted wheels is made here in Vermont with special care and attention by wheelwright Patrick Russo. Beautiful to look at and a joy to spin!

Only a limited number are made each year and no two are alike.The 2 wheels available right now will have pictures uploaded next week (check back 5/22). Both are cherry but one has circular gold filigree inlays and the other features a pattern like you see on the wheel below (the pictured wheel is already SOLD) but with a delicate black inlay similar to the carving you see on the one pictured. Each wheel comes with three bobbins and has 2 ratios: 12:1 and 19 :1. Fashioned after the Canadian tilt-tension wheels of the last century, this wheel has a 27" wheel diameter and beautifully lathed spokes. A special piece of furniture as well as a fine wheel to spin on. Be sure to click on each photo for a closer look at the fine workmanship and artistry in the wheel. These really can't be shipped so you'll have to come to the shop to see it, spin it and buy it.

Prices: for the gold filigree: $770 and for the black ebony inlay: $875
