VEB Ernst-Thälmann-Werke

An antique, compact sewing machine, from the FREIA brand, portable/semi-industrial mechanical, mid-20th century. Dating from the immediate postwar period, complete, robust, designed for semi-professional use, with an integrated motor and noble materials (cast iron + bakelite). The Freia brand is known in Europe for sturdy machines, often intended for artisans, repairers, or for intensive domestic use. Free arm → sewing tubular pieces (sleeves, trouser legs); removable side platform that turns the free arm into a flat table. The mechanism is 100% electric. The brown rectangular branded block corresponds to the original electric motor. It is an alternating-current motor, compact, integrated into the base. It is a machine from the 1940s and 1950s. After the Art Deco period and before the spread of plastics. Very appreciated in industrial interior design and vintage laboratories, as well as in sewing machine collections. Excellent condition, though the old electrical cable should be checked for safety. Shipping via courier.
