Which height?

Choose how you braid.

45 cm is the classic table-height stand, comfortable seated at a table or desk.

65 cm gives longer braids more room before you need to re-wind, and suits a higher working surface or standing work.

Both sets lets you swap heights as your projects change.

The finish

Left bare on purpose.

We sand until the surface feels almost like skin, then stop. Oil and lacquer can grab fibres and change how silk, cotton or wool runs across the plate. Bare, fine-sanded hardwood lets threads move freely, and the wood grain stays visible. One buyer put it simply: “I love that I can see the structure of the wood — and that I don’t have to treat it.”
