9/8/08:45" Nilus LeClerc Tissart Tapestry Loom. This very popular 2 harness, vertical tapestry loom is no longer made. Treadles operate the harness' so that both hands are free. Includes large eye wire heddles and 6 dent reed. The reed has some rust, but it is very usable. The loom is unassembled at the moment, so I am including a picture of a friend's loom that is the exact same loom in very comparable condition. I am willing to reassemble the loom so that you can come and look at it. I am also willing to ship it if necessary. $800. 443-744-1490. Email Rose |

9/8/08:Leclerc MIRA II older but a great weaver! Counter-balance 45" width, 4H, 6T. Located in Southern Vermont. Would prefer not to ship but will travel up to 75 miles to deliver. Comes with one 10-dent reed. This is a wonderful treadling loom with a long history. There was some mouse knawing on the front legs but I have sanded and cleaned her up. I salvaged her from a dirt floor shed where she slept for 10 years. Only reason I have to pass her to someone else that can appreciate her charm is because of arthritis. Asking $400. Email Patricia |
