Vesta Sewing Machine

An attractive example of the small German engineered and manufactured Vesta sewing machine with a bed measuring 11-1/2" x 5-1/4" (29cm x 13.5 cm). This is a particulary early example with a serial number of 1043614.

This lovely example of a very collectable early Vesta model had the hand wheel recessed into the base. The nickel plated parts are all in very good condition. The decals on the main arm are reasonably good, but they have considerable wear on the centre and front of the bed.

The hand crank assembly of this machine has a white porcelain handle which folds down when not in use. The handle is not chipped or cracked and rotates freely on its spindle.

The machine is complete with its needle, shuttle and bobbin and so as well as looking fabulous, it is in good working condition.

The machine is mounted in a wooden base with the normal marquetry rulers to the front and a formed bentwood cover with nickel plated handle, lockplate and key. The case is in lovely condition and measures approx. 15" x 7-1/4" x 9" (38 x 8 x23 cm) high.
