Helene Spinning Top

$17.5 ~~$35~~ In stock

Carved from a single piece of applewood, the Helene Spinning Top is as mesmerizing at rest as it is in motion. Examine the woodwork closely—the two rings trapped on the stem are solid all the way around. Imagine the level of craftsmanship required to cut, shape and polish such an intricate and delicate object. It almost seems impossible. Spin the Helene Top and watch as the two tiny hoops hula up and down the stem. One of the most impressive and hypnotic spinning tops we've ever come across.

The two trapped rings on the stem spin independently and make the whole thing feel alive in my hand, it's oddly calming to just roll it between my fingers at my desk. The single-piece applewood carving is genuinely beautiful too, you can see the grain running right through.

The applewood has a warm, slightly sweet smell that I didn't expect from a spinning top. It spins smoothly on my desk for well over a minute, though the stem is a touch slick if your hands are dry.
