**Antique Harlequin Design 2 Tier Sewing Stand

Price: SALE PRICE 225 including shipping and insurance

Sold by Albion Valley Folk Art and Antiques

For sale is a fabulous antique handmade folk art 2 tier sewing stand that I acquired from a sale in New York state. It is completed in an inlaid harlequin design, has 10 acorn finials of various sizes, the smallest of which are probably for holding thimbles, as well as 2 pin cushions made of 3 different fabrics in brown, gray, and cream. It has porcelain knobs on the drawers, and the drawers are hand dovetailed. In addition, the top lifts off for storing sewing items, and the top is held in place with tiny little latches. There are additional applied decorative elements, and there is a scalloped skirt on 3 sides, with the back completed in a reverse scallop design. In addition, there are 3 holes in the front that are made of bone, I believe, and the middle one is enhanced with abalone or mother of pearl. The sewing stand measures about 9" tall, 11 1/4" long, and 8 3/4" wide, and is in nice, but antique condition, with surface wear and other signs of use, but no really significant flaws. Please look carefully at the pictures, and contact me with any questions, or for additional photos.
