Rare spinning machine unique to Japan, "Gara Spinning Machine"

The Gara Spinning Machine (Gara Spinning Machine) is a spinning machine unique to Japan that was developed in 1873 by Gaun Tacchi (1842-1900), an inventor and former monk born in Azumino City, Nagano Prefecture. Machine.

It is called by this name because it makes a rattling noise when it is in operation. The yarn spun by Garabo is loosely twisted and uneven in thickness, making it very similar to hand-spun yarn.

From the mid-Meiji period onwards, western-style spinning machines that were capable of spinning evenly and faster appeared, and the number of Gara spinning gradually decreased. Currently, only a few machines in Aichi Prefecture continue to slowly spin yarn.
