Proud Young Man with Wonderful Heart Decorated Folk Art Twig Table, Early 1900s RPPC fight but as a whole also

but as a whole also creating quite a comprehensive portrait of how art was taught in grade school in the earlyish 20th century

with the twine wrapped tightly around the carved wooden handle (walnut I believe) like that from which sailor's macrame baskets were made

This hand thrown stoneware/earthenware planter fits the bill--the perfect mix of rustic and refined

but also just a gloriously essential solution to the task at hand

7 5/8" tall

Proud Young Man with Wonderful Heart Decorated Folk Art Twig Table, Early 1900s RPPC fight but as a whole alsoI love this young man, standing tall in his suit, and I sure love this painted "Adirondack" twig table with its big striped heart, as good as they come I'd say, right down to the waves painted around the flat of the table. Upon which his hat perfectly sits. Excellent in every way I think, early 1900s, unused postcard back. 5 3 8" x 3 7 16", very good condition.
