Old Leather Make Do Fly Swatter with Wooden Handle and Wonderful Patina atoni carving pedestal-like silhouette that enables itA very beautiful thing, purchased from one of my favorite dealers in New Hampshire, who has been a source of many treasures this is a homemade fly swatter, with gorgeous leather swat, and perhaps even more gorgeous (and gorgeously worn) carved wood handle.
