The Kromski wheels have the look of wheels from the Baltic area of Poland and Scandinavia. In fact, a well known spinning wheel historian has said that the manner in which this wheel is built is as close to being historically correct as he has seen. This will be a plus for spinners wanting the "real thing" and for the growing community of reenactors. The amount of decorative turning on these wheels is substantial, making them a beautiful sight to behold. The Mazurka design won recognition for Leon Kromski throughout Poland.
