Here’s a charming and unusual vintage sewing piece. This is a figural Asian-style pincushion featuring five small cloth doll figures around the sides with hand-drawn faces and colorful outfits. The top is a bright red satin-style dome that serves as the actual pincushion.
Each little figure appears hand-crafted, and the cushion has a firm stuffed center suitable for holding pins and needles. Pieces like this were often sold as handmade or souvenir sewing items and are now collected as folk art and novelty sewing accessories.
A neat display piece for a sewing room, craft space, or collection of vintage sewing tools.
Condition is good vintage condition with normal signs of age, light fabric wear, and minor handling marks. Please review photos closely for details on fabric, stitching, and faces.
Item comes from a no-smoking, no-pet home and ships from the USA.
