Description from the seller

Elegant Italian sewing box from the 1950s–60s, an authentic expression of postwar craftsmanship, characterized by minimalist lines and harmonious proportions typical of the era's modernist design. Made of light wood with a beautiful natural grain, it combines functionality and aesthetic refinement in a piece that today is sought after by modernism enthusiasts as well as lovers of Nordic vintage and mid-century furniture.

The structure is solid and well built, with visible dovetail joints that attest to careful, artisanal workmanship. The side metal mechanisms allow the upper compartment to open with the classic extendable motion of traditional sewing boxes. The lower shelf adds practicality and visual lightness to the whole.

The piece is in excellent conservation condition, with slight and physiological signs of aging compatible with its age, which enhance its authenticity and charm. Ideal as a sewing box, small storage cabinet, decorative element, or furniture complement in vintage, Scandinavian, or contemporary interiors.

Dimensions:
Height 60 cm
Width 49 cm
Depth 25 cm

An authentic and versatile piece, capable of bringing warmth, retro charm, and Italian artisanal quality to any environment.

Proper packaging and traceable shipping throughout Europe.
