Buyer's premium:

This is a single antique miniature sewing machine identified through market consensus as a Muller model, typical of German-made cast iron children’s toys from the late Victorian or Edwardian period. The machine is constructed of cast iron and steel components. The ornate, stylized base and arching arm are finished in black paint, extensively decorated with gold foliate stenciling or decals. It features a geared flywheel with a metal rim and is operated via a dark, ebonized hand crank handle. The design is characteristic of the popular toy sewing machines produced by German manufacturers like Muller in the early 20th century. No manufacturer markings or text are visible on the exterior casing.
