Lastly, there was this cute little thing. The person giving the tour didn't know too much about it and I would love to find out more. After looking at it more closely we decided that it probably wasn't for a child because of the fine details that it had on it. It is just too tiny for an adult to sit in front and spin though. We came to the conclusion that it must be for use on top of a table and that you would spin the wheel with a hand. The bobbin on it was also tiny. Probably about half the size of my bobbins. I just wonder what this type of wheel would have been used for versus the standard wheel of the day.
