Welcome to my shop!

This Sajou haberdashery chest set is inspired by a vintage design, it is extremely well made from birch plywood which is both glued and nailed and the exterior has a cherry wood stain with the interior of the drawers being left natural.
The top, both sides and drawers are decorated with a round Fil au Chinois label.

Available as a two drawer or four drawer model or as a complete set. These chests are based on the traditional models that could be found in the haberdashers of the past.

Both two drawer models each measure; length, 16 cm - depth,  21.5 cm - height: 14 cm

The four drawer model measures: length, 32 cm- depth, 21.5 cm- height: 27.5 cm.

Total weight: 5.9 kg.

It is very rare for me to have items in my shop that are neither antique nor vintage, but 'vintage style'. Sajou however are an exception to this rule.

Some of you will already be collectors of Sajou and be more than aware of this extraordinary French brand. Sajou produce haberdashery items made  in France to the highest standards (in some cases even produced on the original old machinery). Perfect for gifts and collectors, and for those of you unable to resist a quality that is seldom found in today's mass produced haberdashery products.

Sajou was created in 1828 by Jaques- Simon Sajou, selling haberdashery for embroidery, tapestry, lace, crochet and weaving. His pattern albums are sought after to this day by collectors worldwide. In 2005 the Sajou brand was purchased and revived by avid collector; Frederique Crestin- Billet. Many of the old designs have been faithfully reproduced and there are some new designs that have been added in the Sajou style.  

I have other Sajou haberdashery items for sale in my shop so please do take the time to have a browse.
