    Description

    I used this vintage sewing box for years to store my arts and craft supplies. It has 3 tiers that expand on each side, giving plenty of room. What's nice is I can open just one side I need. The original owner was an elderly neighbor, her grandson gave to me when she passed. Handsome design with brown wood and black handle and arms. It's 17" wide, 8.25" deep, and 11.5" high including handle. There are holes on bottom for legs, which I never owned. It's looked pretty on tabletop, and easy to manage as it weighs 7 lbs before contents. Faint stamp from Poland on bottom. Original hinges and knobs. Wood can use some TLC as top is dry and sides have a few dings. Apart from normal wear, it has these issues, which I think are easy to fix:
    > Two original screws were replaced with silver ones.
    > One original screw came out, but I rescued and taped to inside.
    > I spilled black ink on top edge and side at one time, When I removed, it took off varnish.
    > It's wobby a bit as I open, but may be part of design. Tightening screws may help.
