SOLD Beautifully Weathered and Tenderly Mended Old Painted Wooden Basket handmade list I envision this painting hanging

I envision this painting hanging amid a salon style wall of still lives and domestic scenes

with brown paper shield bearing a hand-drawn fleur-de-lys and peter pan looking boots

I was pretty blown away when I find this antique RPPC yesterday in New Hampshire—what a stunning image

It has been a while since I played backgammon

SOLD Beautifully Weathered and Tenderly Mended Old Painted Wooden Basket handmade list I envision this painting hangingA much weathered and worn old farm apple basket, with much aged red paint around the top and bottom rims, which I find super beautiful in all of its delicacy now. With an old mend on one side wire stretched on the diagonal from one nail to another, where the crossing strips of wood were lost. A bit fragile, and all sorts of wonky, but charming. Approx 7 1 4" across at top x 5 7 8" tall. Stable but one wants to be a bit gentle with it.
