Ukrainian vintage wooden loom. It has only 2 pedals. But you can weave different colorful cloths on it, even rather thick one. Most of its parts are wooden, only some are metal.

Japanese traditional weaving looms called “jibata” or “izaribata”. The mechanism of the loom remains the same for 1,500 years.

Authentic wooden weaving loom from Poltava region, Central Ukraine. It is at least 100-years-old. The loom has 4 pedals. BTW, note that small wooden pegs are even used instead of nails – this loom is almost totally made from wood.

Wooden weaving loom from Ukraine, the 19th century. The details are handmade, so there are lovely little imperfections. You can also see a piece of simple and coarse woven cloth and a vintage flying shuttle. Vinnytsia Regional Museum of Local History.
