AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vintage accordion-style sewing box (or drop-front) in wood, a small storage cabinet with a distinctive design, popular in the 1950s and 1960s.
Main Features
Design a Fisarmonica: The distinctive aspect is the opening mechanism, where the handles spread outward laterally, causing the various wooden compartments to expand like an accordion for easy access to all the contents.
Mid-Century Style: These objects are often associated with Scandinavian furniture design or the era's "atomic style," characterized by clean lines and the use of forked feet.
Materials: They are typically made of wood, such as pine, elm or cedar, with two-tone finishes or in various shades of brown.
Features: Originally used to organize sewing materials (threads, needles, buttons, scissors), these items are now appreciated as collectibles or for storing jewelry, DIY materials, or small objects, thanks to their combination of practicality and retro style.
