 The prices for the Jane 16 50 cm and 70 cm include air freight

The Jane 16 has 
  •  large shed 
  • shuttle race
  • smooth overhead beater

Things to consider

  • The  50 and 70 cm looms are available with 8 shafts, expandable to 16 shafts or straight with 16 shafts. This is a unique feature for table looms with 16 shafts.
  • There is no cord wear, since cords run over rollers and the overhead beater stays out of the way when throwing the shuttle. 
  • The Jane is the most compact 8+ shaft table loom on the market that folds easily. This makes weavers even more likely to choose the Louet Jane loom. 

 

  • . It will fit on the existing Jane floorstand.
  • 2nd warpbeams for existing Jane looms will also fit the new 16 shaft Jane.

Jane 16 is available in the following sizes:

  • 50 cm (20") and
  • 70 cm (27 5/8") 
  • Jane 16 50: 67 x 87 x 65 cm / 10.5 kg - folded 21cm

The new shuttle race

The race can be added to all older 50cm and 70 cm Jane looms as an optional extra.
