According to the still-spotless maker's label inside the lid, this is a Strommen Bruk Hamar sewing box. Isn't it gorgeous?!?!? It is in wonderful condition, and seemed hardly used. And a quick eBay search of completed/sold listings shows that ones like this usually sell for $75-$150 (they are often listed for more, but I wanted to see what people were willing to PAY!). Dad paid.........$25! So a wonderful find. Now I just have to figure out where to put it... :D
