19th c. Sewing Box

France, 19th Century

$325

Something blue. This late 19th-century sewing box, found in Montpellier, has been reimagined as the sweetest little jewelry or keepsake chest. Wrapped in faded blue fabric and lined with brass studs, it still carries a few antique pins tucked inside- a quiet nod to its past life in a seamstress’s atelier. Sylvie keeps hers by the bed, filled with trinkets she’ll definitely never part with.
