Sewing box - Wood - wooden sewing box

This vintage wooden sewing worker in wood? (note: the original says "cette travailleuse à couture vintage en bois" which translates to "this vintage wooden sewing worker"—likely meaning sewing box) reflects the mid-20th century tradition of practical and ingenious utility furniture. Resting on a stable base with two turned columns connected by a stretcher, it opens using a classic accordion cantilever system that unveils five distinct storage compartments spread across three levels. The top covers open with two metal knobs carved with a delicate floral pattern. When closed, the piece measures 58 cm in height, 38 cm in length and 20 cm in depth, while it reaches a deployed length of 1 m when the compartments are fully extended. Weighing 3200 g, this freestanding sewing casket is easy to move around while staying firmly anchored to the ground during handling. The item bears no maker's mark or visible signature. It is in good overall condition, showing minor signs of wear that give it a charming authentic patina, along with small white paint splatters on its dark wooden base that can be easily cleaned."} )
