For sale is an authentic antique Singer Sewing Machine Accessory "Puzzle Box", originally introduced around the 1889 patent design to hold low-shank attachment feet. This compact case features Singer's famous folding "roll-out" mechanical design with interlocking triangular side puzzle panels that split apart, allowing the box to unfold completely flat for flatbed storage.
Condition:
The golden oak wood exterior is structurally intact and shows beautiful natural grain patterns, age-appropriate surface wear, and sturdy historical finger joinery. The interior features a vibrant, remarkably clean original purple velvet lining that is in highly collectible condition with no major tears.
Please Note: The interior clips and brackets are present, but the auxiliary swinging metal trays and sewing attachments are missing. This makes it an exceptional replacement piece for an existing Singer collector or a stunning historical trinket display box.
