Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Spinning wheel

Original - Irish spinning wheel, 1890-1900.

Reason: One of the more impressive prints from the photochrom era and a rare color image of a vanishing craft during its useful life, before spinning wheels got relegated to museums and hobbyists. Probably taken 1890-1900, published no later than 1905. Restored version of Image:Elderlyspinner.jpg.
