FROM THE NET : Carl Sieper of Gevelsberg began producing toy sewing machines in 1902 and carried on until 1975. The name ‘Casige’ was made up from using the first 2 letters of his Christian name, his surname and the town he lived in. Casige machines are very similar in style to Muller machines but the Casige machines have the brand name clearly marked on it. Carl Sieper was a locksmith by trade and all his machines show a picture of an eagle with its wings outspread, holding a key. During the Art Deco period of the late 1920’s he introduced a series of art deco designs for his machines which were very popular at the time and are very collectable now. At the end of WW2, with the factory still standing, the production was restarted like Muller, also using pre-war parts. Models from this time have ‘Casige, Made in Germany, British Zone’ stamped on them and were painted in bright metallic colours with a high gloss finish. Newer models were well made and hard wearing and much larger than the earlier pre-war models. By the 1970’s cheaper plastic sewing machines appeared from the Far East and the demand for toy sewing machines declined as little girls found more modern toys to play with. After nearly 100 years of production, the Muller and Casige factories closed down, along with Singer’s Clydebank factory in Scotland and many other TSM manufacturers. Singer went on to open new factories in Asia but the era of the cast iron and tin plate machines was over.
