Sewing Cabinets

Most of the sewing related antiques you will find on this and our other Sewing Accessories pages originated from Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan, and were part two large and diverse antique sewing collections we are handling on consignment.  This is the first time most of these pieces have been out on the market in many years.

 

Miniature Roll Front Sewing Cabinet / Spool Holder  This unusual small sewing cabinet has louvered doors the retract back into the top portion to reveal 2 shelves of spool holders and a pincushion.  That two tier shelf swings out for use and access.  It is in very nice condition with lots of original finish which is beginning to crackle. It is walnut and well made, and looks like a miniature piece of furniture.  There is one small chip on the left above the drawer.   It measures approx 9" across the front, and is 11" tall overall.   An unusual design!                   Click for Pic     Click for Pic        Click for Pic

Funky Multi-Drawer Sewing / Parts Cabinet This small homemade multi drawer cabinet could be used to hold just about anything, but was part of the sewing cabinet collection.  It is 9" across and about 14 inches tall and is made out of whatever wood and hardware the thrifty maker had around---including an old cigar box!   Click for Pic     Click for Pic     Click for Pic

Raised Panel Walnut Sewing Box / Cabinet  This beautiful and elegant antique sewing box or cabinet is period and has very nice chip carved decorations on the raised panels and backsplash.  It dates from the 1880's or so, and is handmade.  It measures just over 13" across the top, and 20 some inches tall to the top of the headboard.  It is beautifully crafted and looks like a piece of fine miniature furniture.  In nice overall condition, there is minor damage / chips at the front edge of the lid and deterioration to the velvet fabric of the pin cushion.  The backsplash has separated along a joint line, but it can be fixed easily enough.   An unusual and beautiful vintage sewing accessory!                Click for Pic          Click for Pic          Click for Pic    Click for Pic          Click for Pic

Antique Roll Top Sewing Cabinet  This is a cute little spool cabinet fashioned after a larger piece of furniture.  It measures only 8" across and 9" tall.  After you roll up the door you can pull out the 2 shelves to get better access to the thread or pincushion.  It is made of mahogany and dates from near the turn of the century I would guess.  Cute and a functional display!               Click for Pic          Click for Pic          Click for Pic        Click for Pic
