A Pair of Vintage Wooden Industrial Textile Spools
Description
A pair of vintage industrial textile spools or bobbins, each constructed with circular wooden flanges and a central cylindrical core. The spools are designed with metal-reinforced centre bores for industrial spindles. One flange retains a small white rectangular paper label with the inscription 7768 P. The wooden surfaces show varying degrees of industrial wear and staining, including a notable green pigment on the face of one flange. These items represent typical utility equipment from a mid-20th-century textile factory setting.
