This antique Cartier-Bresson Embroidery Cottons cantilever sewing box is a wonderful piece of haberdashery history. Originally used as a shop display, the double cantilever design allows the compartments to open with ease, offering both visual appeal and easy access, making it as functional today as it was in its working life.
The top lifts up and there are three layers to the cantilever design, in a tiered style. The top reads 'Cartier-Bresson Embroidery Cottons - Fast Colours They Boil!' along with the branded logo for the company.
The box is now full of interesting sewing and crafting tools and materials such as buttons, cottons, vintage haberdashery items and other tools - all contents pictured are included.
Perfect for collectors of antique sewing, advertising memorabilia or shop displays, this sewing box also works beautifully as a decorative or practical storage piece.
Dimensions: 42cm x 35cm x Height 12.5cm
Condition: Good order. Cantilever mechanism works as it should. Original perspex top with sign writing has no splits. Minor surface marks and wear all over.
