Great Old Pine Knife Box / Carrying Caddy with Original Red Paint dollhouse furniture I've always got an eye

I've always got an eye out for old tramp art boxes

with creamy white paint over black giving life to this shaggy dog

I'll never not open one of these beautiful old marbled notebooks without looking to see what's inside

I just wanted them near me)

Great Old Pine Knife Box / Carrying Caddy with Original Red Paint dollhouse furniture I've always got an eyeOne sees a lot of these sorts of boxes around, sometimes called knife or utensil boxes, sometimes tool caddies, etc., and really handy for all sorts of things. I usually let them go, but the honest elegance and especially the old red paint on this one completely won me, and I find it really a very beautiful thing. Gorgeous aging to the paint, nice old fat nails visible around the perimeter of the underside, and not a fussy thing about it. 15 15 16" x
