Nailed Heart, Hand-tooled Details, c. Early 19th Century Leather and Wood Snuff Shoe pin cushion 19th century or very early

19th century or very early 20th century I believe and really in excellent condition

describing them as "Poster Crayons for Free Expression" -- what could be better

This piece is in very good condition

and just great--this old cutting board is the size of a large slice of bread

I believe this birdcage dates from the 1930s or so

Nailed Heart, Hand-tooled Details, c. Early 19th Century Leather and Wood Snuff Shoe pin cushion 19th century or very earlyI love a carved shoe, and especially a carved shoe shaped snuff box, but I look at a whole lot of them and mostly let them go. I purchased this and a second today on Ebay from a seller who seemed to have come into a very good small collection of them, all fine early examples I think this one c. late 1700s based on form and materials and compparison to related examples out there. A fairly unusual one, hand tooled leather rather than wood, every inch
