Art Antiques Michigan
I have been an avid collector of country, primitive antiques for about 50 years. During those years I have collected, sold, collected, sold---you know how that goes. I was a single owner antique shop for many years. With the onset of the internet my selling venue has changed. I now have a website https://artantiquesmichigan.com/. Some of you may know me from there. I hope to bring to my Dig site the same quality country, primitive antiques as I offer on my website, at reasonable prices. I will update my Dig site every month between the 15th. and 17th. of each month. You will find fresh to market items at that time. My preferred method of payment is by check. Made payable to Joanne Getz. I offer a lay a way plan to help you with your purchases. Michigan residents add 6% Sales Tax. I do hope you will stop by often. I can be reached nearly anytime at joannemargetz@gmail.com or call me 9894281009.

This is an American box loom in Walnut. This is a beautifully made piece with a natural patina, and it would have originally sat on a work table especially made for the loom. The table is missing. When not in use the loom slides into the top of the box much like a slide lid candle box, and there is molding around the top edge. There are notches at the back of the box for the loom to slide into when in use. The box is constructed with small square nails. The loom itself is a solid panel of walnut and there is a hairline crack running vertically on the bottom. The box has some dark staining on one end of the interior that looks like very old ink spilled. The far end of the box has a lighter tone to the wood at the top from exposure. There is an old tight horizontal crack on one long side of the box near the top, but it appears stable. There are signs of use and wear, but the box is quite sturdy. The original interior spool is missing. The box loom measures 17″ by 8″ by 4 3/4″ tall. When finished with your tape you slide the loom out and then slide the loom into the top of the box for storage. More info available upon request.
