Leclerc Gobelin Tapestry Loom (2-Shaft)
Creating beautiful tapestries can be challenging, but the Leclerc Gobelin Tapestry Loom makes it easy with its high-tension design and convenient treadle control for a seamless weaving experience.
The Leclerc Gobelin Tapestry Loom (2-Shaft) is crafted from high-quality, well-seasoned, kiln-dried Canadian hard maple or birch, except for shaft frames and a few parts that require lighter wood. Metal parts are aluminium dye cast, cast iron and steel protected by metal zinc plating, ensuring exceptional durability and stability. The solid wood construction allows it to withstand high warp tension, making it ideal for weaving detailed tapestries and heavy rugs.
Yes, while the loom is designed for tapestry and rug weaving, its straightforward 2-shaft system makes it accessible for both beginners and experienced weavers. The treadle system simplifies shed creation, making it easier for new users to focus on weaving techniques rather than manual warp manipulation.
The vertical warp orientation allows the weaver to face their work directly, providing a clear view of the fabric as it develops. This setup is particularly beneficial for detailed tapestry designs, as it enables precise control over color placement and pattern development.
