This is a very sound, vintage 1870-1880s, very practical, piece of the sewing necessities. It is in very fine condition as shown. It is mechanically most usable and with strong tension on the thread. It is made from fine steel and, it has what is usually missing.. the stopping piece at the end of the turn key to secure the sewing bird to the table. You will see fancy ones but this bird is more uncommon and substantial. I also like the form of the bird. 5" high.
