Louet Spring 110 Loom
This was sent to our Secretary Sarah Hansell:
Really hope you don't mind me contacting you but have a Louet Spring 110 loom, stool and accessories for sale and wondering if any of your members might be interested.
I am attaching photos of the loom, the stool, warping sticks, various shuttles, tenter hook and warping board. ( I will have to send these on two emails I think)
I have so loved using this loom for making cushions, rugs, scarves, wall hangings etc etc but unfortunately unable to sit at the loom, due to a trapped nerve, so have decided to sell it and all the equipment.
I live in Norwich, so not too far away.
This is a Louet Spring 110 with ten shafts and as you can see looks like new. I have looked at the cost of a new loom and stool on George Weil and would now cost over £5000.00 for loom and stool.
I am looking for £3250.00 for loom, stool, shuttles, tenter hook and warping board etc
If anyone is interested please give them my email address.

I bought this loom from Handweavers Studio a couple of years ago. It is in very good condition and used very little as I bought a floor loom not long after and found that the Table Loom is not getting used.
It comes with all the equipment when bought brand new, plus an extra 6 dpi reed and 397 extra heddles, which gives you a total of 1167 heddles.
