This Singer Featherweight 221 is absolutely stunning in Gloss Black with gold decals!  Completely restored inside and out - this Featherweight 221 will be ready to sew right out of the case. This machine is fitted with an original 110-volt motor that has been rewound to work at optimum speed and torque. Be sure to click on any image above to view the beauty of this machine and restoration quality.  AF3852** indicates an original commission date of December 5th, 1939.

What makes this Featherweight special?

This Featherweight is distinguished by the Singer decal on top of the arm instead of on the light housing.  The placement of this decal was seen on a select few Featherweights mainly in 1939.  One guess is that the Singer employee who installed the decals on the sewing machines was stuck all day doing decals on the Singer 66, 201, and 15 machines...here comes the Featherweight...whoops...the decal got put in the wrong spot; however, an increase in machines from this same batch with the decal on the arm give credence that it may have been intentional by Singer.

To guarantee the authenticity of this restoration, we took photos showing the machine, and the location of the Singer decal, and those photos can be seen in this listing.  To protect the future buyer, we have covered up the last number of the serial number in the photos, but the intricacies in the stamping of each number can be identified in both the before and after photos.

The Original Bobbin Case is included, adhering to originality all these years later.  The machine has been serviced and calibrated for quilter’s cotton, so tension is already properly set; however, tension can easily be adjusted depending on fabric needs.

The machine is fitted with an original scrolled faceplate and the original case includes the top tray for holding the foot controller and some attachments.
