F.E. Dean's 1906 Handmade Wooden Box with (Subtle) Pinprick Decoration little mouse where designs are very finely

where designs are very finely painted in lacquer then sprinkled with gold

this one the head from quite an old working decoy

And I think they did a pretty great job

That pillow has some weight

F.E. Dean's 1906 Handmade Wooden Box with (Subtle) Pinprick Decoration little mouse where designs are very finelyIt is very subtle, but at the center of the lid on this lovely box is carefully pinpricked the year 1906 and the name F. E. Dean I love that it is barely discernible, almost like a secret, with an incised border and gridded decoration at the corners, too. A very handy box as well, good for pens and pencils and all manner of small things, with a divider that can be removed as needed. 11 x 3 5 8 x 2 3 8 t and in very good condition, with hinges well
