Description

This Singer Featherweight sewing machine is absolutely gorgeous in this Wisteria color!  Completely restored inside and out - this Featherweight 221 will be ready to sew (or display) right out of the case. It is fitted with an original 110-volt motor that has been rewound to work at optimum speed and torque. Click on any image above to view the beauty of this machine and restoration quality. AD722*** indicates an original commission date of September 10th, 1934.

Click through the photos to see the machine's original serial number. It was restamped by Singer before it was sold, but the complete disassembly we do in the restoration process reveals the second serial number that Singer stamped underneath the neck of the machine. The number we found indicates that at least part of this machine would have been manufactured along with the other 1933 machines. It is not clear why Singer restamped some of these AD7***** Featherweights, but perhaps they were compensating for a mistake in the recording process, so that two different machines didn't end up with the same number.

Purchasing a machine from The Featherweight Shop is a rather distinguished experience.  Each one of our restored and repainted Featherweights receives hours of personal care in its disassembly, painting process, reassembly, stitch sampling and overall preparation for each and every customer.  As soon as one of our Featherweights arrives in the mail to the customer, the fastidious packaging care and wrapping adds to the unveiling enjoyment, making a Featherweight Shop machine purchase extra special and something to always remember.
