Antique Vermont Textile Mill Bobbin

The details

An exceptional early American textile mill bobbin with untouched surface, authentic wear, and original factory stamping from Burlington, Vermont. This antique wooden spool was used in a working Vermont textile mill and remains completely original, showing honest age, natural patina, and factory-applied metal fittings. The top face retains a faint but legible stamp reading Vermont Spool Bobbin Co., Burlington, VT, confirming documented industrial origin and regional provenance. Tool marks, age cracks, oxidation to the metal hardware, and worn surfaces are consistent with genuine late 19th to early 20th century factory use. Nothing has been over-cleaned or restored; it has been intentionally preserved in untouched condition for collectors who value authenticity over refinishing. Approximate size: 6 in tall, 4.5 in diameter. Maker: Vermont Spool Bobbin Co., Burlington, VT. Era: Late 19th century. Material: Wood and metal. Color: Brown.
