International Sewing Machine Collectors' Society

Fostering the collecting of, and research into, sewing machines.

Haid & Neu Sewing Machine Company

Founded in Karlsruhe, Germany, Haid & Neu was a prominent manufacturer of domestic sewing machines in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Known for their precision engineering and often elaborate cabinet models, their machines—especially the vibrating shuttle types—were widely used across Europe. While not as internationally dominant as Singer or Pfaff, Haid & Neu carved out a loyal following through their quality and innovation in German markets.
