I am selling my beloved 48” Shannock tapestry loom. There is simply no room for it in my new studio. I am selling it for $1500. I paid close to $3000 for it. I am the second owner.
It’s an all steel, extremely sturdy 2 harness, 4 treadle (2 sets of 2 treadles) upright loom. It comes with a cartoon holder, built-in raddle, several extra heddle setts & new holders for making different setts, the manual and all the necessary pieces. Shannocks are noted for maintaining very tight tensions; and since it’s all steel, you can warp it w/ traditional yarns or even wire without any fear of damaging the beams.
It’s currently disassembled and all pieces wrapped & carefully labeled and ready for pickup.
It was in a flood several years ago, so there may be some scarring of the metal legs and lower pieces; but it works perfectly. I have not had it assembled for 4 years. I cleaned it all up and disassembled it and carefully wrapped all pieces. Some bolts may need replacing but they are easily replaced. For these reasons I’ve placed a low selling price on it. I don’t remember seeing any horrible scarring of the lower pieces; but as I said, it’s been wrapped for several years.
I cannot ship it. You are welcome to have a shipping company pick it up and then having it crated and shipped to you or if you’re on the east coast, near NYC where I live and the loom is located, you can pick it up yourself.
