I hadn't found a sandpaper drawing I loved in a long while

Certainly he was once attached to an armature via strings tied to the holes at his wrists so that he could perform acrobatic feats

Satisfying Grids: Pair of Much Handled Antique Hand-carved Cracker Stamps rustic carving I hadn't found a sandpaperI don't do much with carved wooden butter and cookie molds which are not my expertise, but as a lover of little carved wooden objects and modular patterns just couldn't resist these, with their perfectly gridded ends. The seller described them as cracker stamps, which I think could just as well mean small biscuits or cookies. Both very much used, with rich patinas. Dark wood: 3 7 8" x 3 4" x 11 16". Blond wood: 3 7 16x 5 8" x 9 16. Sold as a pair,
