Chunky Large Ball in Cage Whimsy ink on laid paper but it certainly has me

but it certainly has me feeling motherly toward  it

I love the long handle of this old wooden spoon or ladle

down to her the girl's terrific ringlets

I'd love to see a whole bunch of these hung together from the ceiling to form a sort of cloud

perfect object

Chunky Large Ball in Cage Whimsy ink on laid paper but it certainly has meI like the idea of a whimsy collection that would span from the crudest to the most refined, with this one landing toward the left end of that scale. The opposite of precious, it would be a fine one to let the kids play with, but I might keep it one the desk myself, as it's a satisfying one to hold and rattle (and maybe also throw!) around. 5 3 4" l x 2 1 4" w x 2 1 8"d and in good, super solid and sturdy condition with some age to it for sure.
