some featuring animals

At some point it must have been a thing to repurpose old wooden spools this way

I might guess this was made in two pieces to begin with

with lots of pin holes

a stain to the card at lower left and a bit of surface loss to upper right corner

Excellent Gray Fainted Pine Folk Art Cat with Black Stripes soapstone e some featuring animalsI spotted this one from 50 feet away perched in the back corner of a tent at Brimfield and it seemed as though it had just been waiting for me. Cut of thick pine, warmly worn around the edges, great old gray paint with black stripes that wrap the sides, sweet pink nosed face, and most excellent cat like presence. 10 t x 7 1 8 w x 13 16 d. Wear and some paint loss around the edges of the ears as evident, making it feel very well loved.
