Heartfelt Handmade Walnut (?) Box with Relief Carved Heart and Fat Dovetail Joints realistic drawing with a pontil visible on

with a pontil visible on the bottom

with ink drawn border and signature: 11" x 8 9/16"

The box for these shows a little wear but the wooden "dominoes" seem barely have to been used--bright and crisp and both very 1969 and very 2021

covering the suits--celluloid I'd guess

and portrays a fingered citron fruit

Heartfelt Handmade Walnut (?) Box with Relief Carved Heart and Fat Dovetail Joints realistic drawing with a pontil visible onA lovely, honest and earnest heartfelt, one might say! old handmade box with hinged lid, juicy fat dovetail joints, and a relief carved heart at center. Hardwood, I believe the wood is walnut, but I'm terrible identifying woods. Not a fussy thing about it, but one has the sense it was very much a labor of love, and I'll always say yes to a box with a hand carved heart! 9 5 8" x 5 3 8" x 4 1 8" t. Key long gone, so it does not lock. Very good
