Not that I'm aware of. There are two that have names I know of. The first is the Martha Washington cabinet. It actually has a decal with a picture of Martha inside. The other one I've seen is the "Twiggy" cabinet. The front panel spells "White" in a twig motif. The drawer pulls look like twigs too. New Home has a very similar cabinet.
The William and Mary cabinet you posted is actually a style of furniture. I do like that cabinet.

Here's a neat one. Interesting design and a great cabinet. I can't read the brand though.

EDIT: It's also a newer looking treadle.

Cari, I do find that sewing cabinets do go on their own when I put them in the buy and sell. Usually anywhere from $15 - $25 will clear some space for me in a relatively short order. I do that with the ones that are in reasonable shape but have no machine. The ones that are rough - stripped screws and the thing is rickety, "mid-century" and had the stuffing beat out of it, parts missing and not reasonable to try to find replacements (again, generally a mid-century /particle board thing, never a treadle or "worth fixing" style of desk with real wood that can be repaired) - do sometimes hit the dump. Sometimes a neighbor takes them and spends more time with them than I'm willing to.

It's a Borletti machine, probably 1960s.

I can think of many other machines that I consider "prizes" that would warrant a high price.

Here is an unusual folding table but high $ - not sure if this is realistic or not.

^^^^^ haha Maybe not so realistic...
Someone wanted this 99 badly - it does look pretty - though no motor, the tension unit is separate (with parts missing?), the case dinged up and the bottom has bits missing underneath.... and there's no knee lever. Close to $30... ?
Here's part of the description (Goodwill....) "Motor belt is loose and needs to be repaired." Yep, something's not right......
