Sewing MachineThis lovely "Wellington" sewing machine was made by "Bradbury & Co", who claimed to be the first sewing machine manufacturer in Britain and Europe.
The machine has retained some of its' original gilt work, mainly around the base and the central picture of the 'Duke of Wellington" to the bed is still quite clear and legible.
The black japanning has worn in places, particularly, around the edges. The casting to the legs, arms and base are still crisp and clean and there are no chips or cracks.
The exposed metal work does show signs of surface rust blemishes in places.
I have tried to show the condition in the photographs.The shuttle is present.
The wooden handle is well attached and the machine does turn with a good action, however, it is a little stiff.
The serial number to the plate reads 19443
