My name is Laurie Gano. You might know of me from my tapestries. I need to make room for more living space so I’m selling my beloved tapestry loom. I’ve woven dozens of tapestries on this loom and am looking for a good home for it with someone who would like to continue this loom’s tradition of giving the weaver hours of joy.
This loom was custom made from pine 4X4’s and steel, 2 LeClerc harnesses, overhead counterbalanced beater, it can take a lot of tension, so is most suited to tapestry or rug weaving. It is a stand-up loom, similar to the ones I learned on at the Instituto Allende in Mexico. It comes with a large amount of 2/12 wool warp, several boat shuttles, sticks for warp and miscellaneous yarn.
Specifications:
Weaving width: 60” wide, 8 epi reed
Loom’s footprint: 71” W x 78” L x 79 “ H
Price: $1000 or best offer
