Charkha

About the product

Charkha is led by its weathered wooden wheel, where angled blades, turned posts, and taut threads hold the memory of traditional spinning in visible tension. Made from reclaimed wood, the sculpture carries a deep brown patina, with worn edges and rubbed surfaces that make the grain feel handled over time. Its small spindle, base rails, and thread lines keep the mechanism legible, rooting the piece in India’s long hand-spinning tradition without turning it into a relic. As decor, it brings heritage through construction, with every peg, spoke, and stretched fibre contributing to its quiet mechanical rhythm.
