The mid-century sewing box is crafted from wood and honey-stained plywood. Its compartments feature three sections, each closed by a lid with a black wooden handle. These are ideal for organizing spools of thread, needles, and accessories. The round, black base is a typical 1950s design, original and lightweight, enhancing the slender character of this handy little storage unit.

The sewing box dates from the 1950s and is beautifully crafted. It is made of wood and plywood, with a black tubular steel base. Signs of age are visible, including a few discreet areas where the veneer is missing, as seen in the photos. It is practical, has an original design, and is perfectly functional. One small black rubber foot is missing, but this does not affect its stability.
