Scroll down for 7 more photos

This sewing basket, supported with nicely tapered spiral legs, has just above it, acanthus leaves, signifying its Salem provenance. It is a three drawer sewing table with original wooden pulls. We have reupholstered the bag with an appropriate fabric that contrasts beautifully with the vibrantly figured mahogany. The top is of the solid, and is a beautifully figured slab of wood (see detailed image). This worktable is all in original condition, with original casters, and is a fine example of the form. 

Height: 27 1/2 in. Length: 22 in. Depth: 16 3/4 in.
