About the Item

Impressive Danish carved and painted tape loom, Denmark. Tape looms were historically used to weave narrow bands of fabric, such as belts, ribbons, and straps. The initials "MJ" and the date "1834" are carved into the top of the loom. In some traditions, a young man would carve and present a loom to a woman as a courtship token. Wonderful addition to a collection.
