Vintage Wooden Color Cubes - Set of 20 animal decoration I find looking at them

I find looking at them closely feels akin to taking a deep breath

I’d guess it dates from the 1960s and the painting itself is in very good condition

Or display it on the vanity or in the powder room

with just a tiny bit of loss to the gilding around the rim

Vintage Wooden Color Cubes - Set of 20 animal decoration I find looking at themIt is amazing how much pleasure and satisfaction on can derive from arranging and re arranging a set of painted wooden blocks! Really, I find these excellent for reducing stress and just great to have on the table, as pretty much any way you arrange them, they look fabulous. I believe these blocks were part of a larger boxed Color Cubes set, but the box is gone and these 20 are what remain. (Plenty of good boxes in the shop, though, to store them in!)
