The Willcox & Gibbs sewing machine is one of the most iconic, recognizable, and highly engineered antique sewing machines in history. Patented in 1857 by James Edward Allen Gibbs and manufactured in partnership with James Willcox, this machine is famous for its distinctive "G" shaped cast-iron frame and its smooth, near-silent operation Single-thread chainstitch: Unlike standard lockstitch machines, classic Willcox & Gibbs models do not use a bobbin or bottom thread. They employ a rotating hook patented by Gibbs that interloops the top thread, forming a very secure chainstitch on the underside of the fabric.
