Vesta Hand Crank Sewing Machine
If you’re looking for something special, you’ve just found it.
This beautiful Vesta hand crank sewing machine is a rare survivor from the golden age of German engineering. Made in Altenburg, Germany by L.O. Dietrich, this machine was built to last — and it has. Painstakingly restored by hand, this Vesta is more than just a sewing machine — it’s a working piece of history.
With its solid cast iron body, original decals, and gleaming hand-polished finish, this machine is as striking to look at as it is satisfying to use. The mechanics have been fully serviced and rebalanced, ensuring a smooth, quiet action and reliable straight stitch every time.
Whether you’re a collector, a passionate sewist, or someone who appreciates timeless craftsmanship, this machine won’t disappoint. It’s ready to sew straight out of the box — or to sit proudly on display as the centrepiece of any creative space.
