Late 1950s Japanese Imperial Sewing Machine

Here's a beautiful sewing machine. This Japanese-made Imperial sewing machine is a powerful manual zigzag machine.

Like the cars that come out of Japan, these beautiful mid-century sewing machines reflect the Japanese commitment to quality and precision. Not only are they mechanically superior to anything you can buy today, but they have a styling and beauty that's unsurpassed.

It was made in the late 1950s or early 1960s before the advent of plastic sewing machines and sewing machine parts. It's all-metal drive is smooth and precise, and it makes a very neat seam.

In the video we've made of it, you'll see it sew multiple layers of heavy fabrics and leather, as well as light shirting material. You'll see how to thread it, how to sew different weights of fabric, how to change the pressure on the presser foot for heavier and lighter materials and how to release all the pressure, drop the feed dogs, and freehand sew.

Most of all, you'll see and hear it in action before you buy.

Watch it here.
