Japanese Wooden Thread Spool 

This is a vintage Japanese spool, or itomaki, used to wind and store copious amounts of silk thread used in the production of kimono and other popular traditional textiles. The thread is simply wound around the frame like a modern bobbin. This item was used in tandem with a machine called "zakuri" which was typically hand-powered and spun silk thread with quick efficiency. There is calligraphy kanji written on both ends.
