I have had this box since before I started sewing. I was cleainng houses and one of my customers gave it to me. I think the box is wonderful! Is stamped patented February 19 1889.

I'm not sure what it is but it looks really cool!!

That sure is beautiful!! I love the craftsmanship of the old days. That's a treasure !

Is it the singer puzzle box? Looks like it

That is what all the feet and accessories for the sewing machine were stored in - isn't it cool???!!!!

Looks like a storage box for sewing machine accessories

Is this it?

I'm not sure, I just googled the patent date...but it looks/sounds close

It's called a puzzle box. Very nice!

Yes, I'm sure that that is what it is! So cool to find out! Thank you very , much.

My mom has one. She has an old singer treddle machine. All the acessories came in this nifty little box. The machine that my mother has was my great grandmoters. You have quite a find. I've never seen one like it other than my moms. I will try to get a picture of my moms machine and box.

I have one of those puzzle boxes that came with my Singer treadle machine.

It looks like you have hemmers and a tucker - if you have a low shank machine, you might like using these.

Often the little foot that the hemmers hooks onto is missing in these boxes - how nice that yours is present. :) A little soaking in Evaporust and a little polishing and you'll be good to go.

Its really neat!

WOW.. that's quite a find.. very nice set of "rolled hem feet"
great for handkerchief hems and scarves.. gotta love that.

Wow! It looks like sewing machine feet. I was blessed enough to find an 1889 Singer treadle that sews like a dream. When you think about it....that was 120 years ago. What treasures we have.

Hi, LORI Its a sewing attachment box, I have the same one. LORI K. 8-)

I have one something like that. It went to my husband's great grandmother's treadle sewing machine. I was told that it was the attachment box that came with the machine. We have the sewing machine, too, but it need some work to get it up & running again.
