Antique & Vintage Sewing Accessories
Pincushions
Most of the sewing related antiques you will find on this and our other Sewing Accessories pages originated from Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan, and were part two large and diverse antique sewing collections we are handling on consignment. This is the first time most of these pieces have been out on the market in many years.

Victorian Antique Pin Cushions
These pin cushions are wonderful! The one on the top is intricately
carved vegetable ivory and resembles a little urn. The heart shaped
cushion on the left is sterling silver and unpolished. Although slightly
disfigured it is still quite lovely. The cushion is velvet. The
little tufted pillow shaped cushion on the right is made from silk
fabric---slightly faded but in otherwise amazingly nice condition. The one
on the bottom looks like a little booklet with a mother-of-pearl front and back
"cover" and velvet edges. These are the type of antique sewing /
needlework accessories that are rarely found anymore, except when they come out
of long-time collections as these did.

Dog Pincushion
This small pin cushions base measures approx 4 x 5. The base
is a bent tin and the dog seems to be lead. The barrel like pincushion is
wood I think. Really nice!

Black Mama Pincushion
This is a unusual pin cushion. It measures about 5 1/2 " tall.
It appears to be homemade? and is in very nice condition. The bottom folds
open, and she will stay upright. Interesting and different.
