I have this in mahogany and I absolutely love it
This Kromski polonaise wheel, is my very first wheel. I watched a few videos on how to put it together (as well as how to use it), which made it easier. As for use, well all I can say is I am hooked. I love spinning on this wheel so much that I am thinking of buying another Kromski to take with me while traveling. I spin as much as a full bobbin a day to relax after work. I like that all the bobbins are interchangeable between wheels. This was a great factor in my choosing a Kromski. I had a wonderful time trying out different wheels at Paradise Fibers. They made sure I had the basics down, which is why I bought it there.
Sure am enjoying my Kromski Symphony Spinning Wheel. It is also a beautiful collection piece. I will look forward to years of use. Thanks Paradise.
When people think of spinning wheels, they usually envision a big, beautiful Saxony style wheel. The Saxony style wheels were the first spinning wheels in history that added a treadle in order to free both hands of the spinner. Since their inception, they have been the wheel of fairytales and therefore, are often referred to as “Cinderella” wheels. The Kromski Symphony exemplifies the classical style of these wheel types!
It is the largest, in our line of Saxony wheels, with a diameter of 24” and an orifice height of 27”. The Symphony definitely commands the attention of the room with it’s definitive sloping bench and grand sprawl measuring 43” wide. Although capacious, the weight of this wheel is quite conservative at only 15 pounds.
It is a double treadle wheel that can be operated in either single drive mode with Scotch Tension or in double drive mode, without. An independent, tensioned, arched lazy kate is INCLUDED with this wheel. The observable turnings of the Symphony wheel, posts and legs alone display the distinctive Kromski craftsmanship but the meticulous artistry in the functional components of the mother-of-all amplify this wheel as a timeless beauty.
Jumbo Flyer kits expand the spinners range in two ways. First, the type of yarn created can vary from lace-weight to super bulky art yarn because of the larger orifice on the jumbo flyer. Subsequently, the jumbo bobbin allows spinners twice the capacity of the regular Kromski bobbin. A regular Kromski bobbin already offers 50% greater space than most standard bobbins in the industry with a generous 4.2 ounce capacity. Jumbo bobbins double that, essentially allowing you to spin two regular bobbins worth without a bobbin change!! This means longer, continual drafts for skeins with greater yardage.
