Antique Spinning Wheel

Frederic ___ Hyacinthe St spinning wheel. Could anyone estimate the value? I can't make out the second word on the seat.

 

Hi @Karen Wilcox and WELCOME to ANTIQUERS!! What seat, where?? I'm not positive if that's a 'spinning' wheel or a 'flax' wheel?? Looks like you must be right, I found a partial article on Pinterest....

The ad reads: Théodore Borduas, successor of Frédéric Borduas of St. Hyacinthe, St-Hyacinthe, with an old image: And I don't read French??

 

I'm calling it a seat because it's horizontal and flat, but I know you wouldn't sit on it. You can't see the words in the picture and they're hard to read, but it says Frederic _____ Hyacinthe and then there's an St in the middle. Might be a flax wheel, I don't know. I looked up pictures of spinning wheels and think I saw the same one.

 

I can't make out the word next to Frederic.

 

I guess it could be Bordua. Thank you. What do you know about this piece?

 

Thank you for this link! Not sure I want to pay a monthly fee because I don't have a lot of antique items top assess, but I'm thinking about it.

If you read about Part 1, it does go on to Part 2 and spinning on the Old Bordua Wheel that that individual had acquired....most interesting!!!!

 

Thank you!

 

It is VERY interesting, thank you so much for the information!

 

Thank you. Yes, I have found some interesting information on Google including a young lady giving demonstrations on how to use it.
