Description from the seller

Filled vintage wooden sewing box from the 1960s – accordion version

Charming and practical wooden sewing box from the 1960s, featuring the characteristic fold-out accordion system. A atmospheric item from a time when sewing, mending and handicrafts had a fixed place in the household.

The box is made of warm-toned wood and has multiple layers and separate compartments. Thanks to the hinged wooden arms, the compartments open in steps to both sides. This immediately creates a clear workspace for thread, needles, pins, buttons and other notions.

The sturdy carrying handle makes the box easily portable. The two top lids are fitted with small wooden knobs and close the set neatly. The subtle brass-colored fittings form a beautiful detail against the warm wood tone.

This sewing box is offered with an extensive vintage contents, including various types of:

* Sewing thread and embroidery thread
* Wool and crochet thread
* Elastic and tape
* Buttons
* Measuring tape
* Pins cushion
* Needles and other notions
* Various older spools, cards and packaging

The contents originate from different periods and are delivered as shown in the photos. An attractive ensemble for collectors of old sewing supplies, but also ready to use for sewing, embroidery, mending and other creative hobbies.
