Making and outfitting sewing stands were a combined effort of the brethrens’ shop and the sister’s workrooms. This Shaker sewing stand was made of lathe turned maple wood and has 3 compartments, one for a thimble, metal pins for spools of thread on the middle section, and a bottom compartment for thread. It has the original strawberry emery on top for needles. Most of the original oxidized varnish surface remains. There are no issues. The stand is 7 3/4” tall and dates to ca.1850. See “Shaker Folk Art & Industries” by Marian Klamkin, p. 156, for a similar stand. Found in the Albany, NY area. Price: $295.00 + shipping
