By looking at other spinning wheels online and it was bought in the 1900s. I also checked out this website online https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/552401968/ashford-elizabeth-2-spinning-wheel?ref=pla_similar_listing_top-1 and it looks very similar to it.

Do you know the provenance of the piece?

The one you linked to is not an antique, it may be brand new. I think Ashford Elizabeth wheels are still being made.

eta: there are many spinning wheels listed on EBay, if looking for value search completed auctions.

Thank you

I bought it in PEI in 1981

Colleen ... not sure whether it is an antique but most posts I see they say vintage. I purchased it it in PEI in 1981

It might be the photo but.. it does not look like a complete wheel. For sure not functional in it's current state. The drive belt is missing, that's no real biggie... but it looks like the no-hole rear leg is missing, and the footman between the drive wheel and treadle is not hooked up, nor is the flyer on it's maidens. It looks like if the were to be hooked up- the treadle is facing the wrong way on the treadle support to make the connection. Also the treadle is up and blocked by the front leg, way wrong position.

It looks lacking in an orifice and maiden bearings too- and hard to tell, but are all the grooves on the whorl the same size?

Really hard to tell what size it is- how tall is it, and how wide? What it the wheel diameter? It almost looks like a childrens or decor replica from the size.

Are there any markings under the table?

And just reference.. antique is usually 100+ years old. Vintage starts around 20-30 yearsish

I just want to add to my post that I found a marking on the bottom and it says La Famille, Ouellet Depuis 1798 so it does falls into the category of antique as it is 220 years old. I will reassemble to the best of my knowledge and take a picture in a better location with measurements.

Hate to tell ya, the wheel isn’t 220 years old. The “La Famille, Ouellet Depuis 1798“ mark means its from the 1970’s. It’s the mark the Ouellette grandson, Guy, used in the 70’s.

And pretty darn sure that the second pic you posted is not your spinning wheel. It’s a pic you pulled from elsewhere, correct?

I agree with beesneeds that the wheel is from the 1970s, but I’m not sure why s/he thinks the second picture isn’t your wheel. Looks to me like you’ve reassembled your wheel, given it a good dusting and photographed it in the sun.

PS A wheel 220 years old would be much different stylistically and also be pretty well used looking and frail.

Thanks for the comments especially what the marking of 1798 means .. I mistakenly thought it would mean 1798 as the year.. thanks for clearing that up. You are right it was a picture I pulled from the internet. I haven't reassembled the one I have yet. Just wanted to post what it should be like when I do reassemble. Sorry for the confusion. Thanks everyone for your help. I appreciate it so much although a little disappointed it wasn't the year. Better to know now.

Still wondering if anyone knows what the value of this would be in the current market now that I know a little more about it. Thanks for your help

You wrote that you had it listed for 130.00. Did you get any inquires?

I have no idea what the market might be for a spinning wheel, but I would probably accept the first offer. If no offers, lower the price til you get bites.

I knew the second wheel wasn’t her photo because I recognized it from elsewhere... and also, there was no way the OP could have gotten theirs assembled correctly, in perfect shape, and a different stain in under an hour... the OP said they need to assemble and posted the pic less than an hour later.

It’s really not worth much in its present condition of not assembled and misassembled and looking like it might be missing pieces. If you can refurbish it as nicely as that second pic, you might get closer to that 130. Not fully functional it might appeal to a decor.... but the market is kind of thin for wheels like this, especially without a juicy provenance to make it interesting to more random collectors.

Fully functional, it’s still not necessarily going to appeal to a spinner. Used wheels can be problemic, especially when they are in the shape yours is in.

According to what I see as sold, similar wheels, you might get $100.

to get an idea of price for a finished and working spinning wheel, attend renaissance fairs where such wheels are put to use and ask the owners what the price of a spinning wheel might be.

Your wheel is not worth much based on the photo you show, Parts are missing and the foot-treadle shaft is in backward. Notice that when the foot treadle is laid out horizontally, it can't be connected to the drive wheel's crank. The outer end of the foot treadle should be directly or nearly so under the wheel crank. The connecting rod that goes from the treadle to the crank is missing. Also missing are the spindle with 2 different sized pulleys plus the drive belt.
