Description
This original Winselmann sewing machine dates from the early 20th century and is a characterful object from the heyday of the European sewing machine industry. The black-painted cast-iron machine is richly decorated with refined gold-colored ornaments and sits on an original wooden base.
A notable feature is the still-present wooden protective cover, nicely bearing the inscription Winselmann, which makes this set extra complete and collectible. The hand-drive with a large metal flywheel emphasizes the mechanical craftsmanship of a time when durability and precision were central.
