A Mid-Century Modern sewing work box table of rectangular form with rounded corners, constructed from oak? or oak veneer with a dark stained finish. The hinged lid opens to reveal a primary storage compartment lined in pleated red satin, featuring an elasticated internal pocket to the underside of the lid. The front of the box is detailed with three horizontal fluted ribs and houses a single pull-out drawer. This drawer is fitted with a secondary recessed storage compartment lined in red velvet and features a brass-toned bow handle. The piece is supported on four tapered “dansette” style screw-in legs. A small gold-toned adhesive decal is present on the interior lid, featuring a graphic of a standing figure in blue and orange robes with the text TRADE MARK and ENGLAND; the central brand name is not legible. The box contains an assortment of vintage sewing notions including thread spools and a circular Castle Shortbread? tin.
