Victorian Pedestal Sewing Box
This elegant Victorian pedestal sewing box is crafted from richly toned walnut, featuring a hexagonal body supported by a beautifully carved tripod base. The box opens to reveal a compartmentalised interior, originally designed to house sewing implements and notions. The design showcases the craftsmanship typical of the Victorian era, with attention to detail in the carving of the legs and the shaping of the box itself.
Condition and Collectibility
This sewing box exhibits signs of age and use, consistent with its antique status. The hinge requires a pin, and there may be minor wear to the veneer. Despite these minor imperfections, the box remains a desirable piece for collectors of Victorian sewing furniture or those seeking a unique and decorative item. The box’s original compartmentalised interior adds to its appeal and historical significance.
