Ashford Tapestry Beater
£26.50
A beautifully simple hand tool for settling every weft firmly into place. The smooth lacquered handle feels warm in the hand, while ten wooden teeth let you beat small areas with precision—perfect for tapestry, rya, piled weaves and those wonderfully textural moments when an ordinary loom comb feels far too broad.
- Lacquered Silver Beech hardwood.
- Ten teeth at approximately 5dpi.
- Useful with frame, tapestry and rigid-heddle looms.
Use a light, even rhythm and build the beat gradually; the aim is settled cloth, not crushed warp. Natural grain and colour will vary gently from one wooden tool to another.
