🎎 Antique Japanese silk reel bobbin. These items are called itomaki in Japan where they were in common use for silk thread production until roughly the end of the 19th century. The bobbins where used with special machines called zakuri which were often hand-powered and included clever gears and mechanisms to spool silk in a fast and efficient manner. Silk production was a widespread cottage industry in Japan through the end of the long and peaceful Edo period (1600-1868) and many traditional Japanese farmhouses were designed with special attic rooms for the pursuit of sericulture.
