Wooden Cookie Mold ♥ Motif

Intricately carved Cookie Mold showing a warm surface lending delightful color variations. Exact age is unknown. However the edges and corners are smooth and lend a gentle curved appearance. The backside was probably used as a cutting board as chop marks are present. Wood chosen is also unknown but smooth to the touch and warrants a piece not contributed to American origin. A clue referencing what I believe is an “Edelweiss flower” seems to radiate below the center field. This flower is found in Switzerland, Austria or Germany. Minor chips are present on the edges as well as surface scratches on the front. Four tiny holes present on left edge. A mystery letter and numbers appear on the back and bottom location. These numbers may relate to a recorded / catalogued item possibly used in a museum? The low relief carving that includes a half circle on the outer edge as well as a series of captivating floral designs present a naïve folk art appearance that holds our attention within an everlasting heart. May have been used by a commercial bakery offering customary ♥ cookies for wedding ceremonies. Nice condition! Stands 12 ½” tall, measures 8 ½” across and is 1 ¼” thick.

Pennsylvania Water Color Landscape Painting

This delightful painting was found in a circa “1755” Pennsylvania stone farmhouse located on 134 bucolic acres in Bucks County. I was able to acquire two of these paintings signed by the artist “Ross”. The artist captured a beautiful farm house lending Pennsylvania flavor flanked by trees with blue skies overhead. The style lends whispers of a naïve folk art composition interpreted by the artist using brush strokes of whimsy. This painting just explodes with happiness and delight as the birds are taking flight in the sky while the trees seem to be thriving because of the springtime weather. There is some paint loss located on the upper right hand corner with further (minimal) loss sprinkled in the middle of the large majestic tree. Age of the painting is unknown and frame may be a later addition. I tried to research this artist but hit a dead end. Apparently, there was an artist studio on this farm but the owner’s name does not coincide with the artist. The frame is in good condition without any chips or cracks to report. I hope this painting speaks to you! Overall height including the frame measures 12” tall, measures 17” across and is 1” deep. More pictures available!

Unusual Tin Kerosene Lamp

Unique Kerosene Lamp having a single burner equipped with a wick that dates to the 1875 period. The graduated cone shaped piece off to the right having a side window was fashioned from either mica or isinglass so the light held within could escape.

Powder Horn Cabin and Heart Design

Beautiful stylized mid-19th century Powder Horn having an inscribed design showing a “cabin in the woods”. This bucolic scene boasting folk art trees wraps around the throat and appears at different levels. A brass hand cut heart delights us located on the top wooden cover and shows tiny nails used to secure it. The decorative tacks on the collar lend even more detail. A copper loop was attached to accommodate the cord hanger (that apparently was found on Southern outfits). This was probably a right hand carry piece fashioned from cow horn. Instead of having a carved feature referring to the design elements, it appears the maker decided to draw the scene instead. The base plug is missing. There are a couple of inconspicuous cracks located at the edge of the collar as well as a tiny piece of metal that protrudes the horn surface. A recessed band wrapped with some unknown fiber can be found near the bottom. Great piece of folk art that awaits a cozy mantle!

Pennsylvania Cookie Cutters Figural Women

This pair of flatback, strap handled (one only) cookie cutters are folksy and fun! They date to the late 19th century and depict two women, one large and one small. The larger, harder to find version does have light surface rust throughout but the smaller cutter seems to have escaped this circumstance. There is a small break limited to the left arm only where the solder has pulled away from the tin. Larger cutter having one large and two small vent holes. Smaller cutter is missing the handle which provided an opportunity to create a wire stand. This piece may have been re-soldered at one point because the metal alloy extends past the figure. No breaks to report. Maybe one can fantasize that the larger cutter is the mother and the smaller version is the child. Nice Pair that can be added to your growing collection!
