This may be the earliest of the Farnham signatures. I have not found this signature on flax wheels. There are two distinct styles of Farnham flax wheels. First is the traditional three-legged wheel. The plain spokes increase in diameter from the hub to the rim, with a single band decoration cut into the spoke near the rim.
Turnings are graceful and unadorned with free-flowing, rounded lines and no sharp demarcations.
The maidens and the distaff post are topped with a small, cap-like finial. The flyer is delicately shaped. The second wheel is of a unique design. It has four legs, a horizontal table, two vertical rectangular posts which support the drive wheel and at the top of which is mounted the distaff crossarm. A long tension screw, threaded into the near wheel post, adjusts the distance of the flyer from the drive wheel.
