Set of 2 vintage industrial Japanese metal x wooden core spools. The punched aluminum end plates show natural oxidation and signs of use, while the center features a solid wood core with a tight grain and a unique patina and color developed from years of high-speed rotation. Originally used as thread feed and winding components in industrial sewing machines and textile machinery, the structure is stable and the proportions are restrained. With a clear production background, they possess a strong industrial aesthetic and can be used for storing thread in an atelier, as a display base for tools, as props for photography, or as standalone industrial objects for display. The metal edges and surfaces show wear and spots due to aging, all traces of actual use. Please consider only if you understand the condition. Size: Height 9cm, Aluminum part diameter 11cm
