Nice Old Two Tiered, Slide Lid Antique Pencil Box stars and stripes seeming a bit as if

seeming a bit as if steeling herself to get through whatever's next

There is one piece on the left side section of the bottom tier fence that is split

but it has some damage

and then how perfect to apply to a jar of cold cream

one hand gripping the edge of the base pretty tightly it seems-- I'd like to think the carver found her the sexiest woman in the world

Nice Old Two Tiered, Slide Lid Antique Pencil Box stars and stripes seeming a bit as ifI love an old pencil box, especially one with lots of room in it for pencils and whatever else one might want to pack into it! And I love one that clearly did its job over many many years! Pretty carved detailing around the perimeter of the tight fitting slide lid on this one, and then two trays inside held together with a screw, such that the top one swivels out and all the way around. Plus a wonderfully worn indent for pulling opening. 9 3 8" l x 2"
