To my eye such beautiful things

He's threaded with what I believe is his original string

Paper weaving was a Froebel kindergarten activity

SOLD Very Old Carved Wooden Doll Head with Old Paint and Wire Loop Earrings primitive bowl To my eye such beautifulFound yesterday in Maine, and clearly a very old one, which I assume would have been sewn onto a cloth torso, perhaps with carved wooden arms and lower legs sewn onto that. Beautifully worn and aged, with deep carving for her hair and some old paint still hanging onto wood, particularly the black of her eyes and pink of her cheeks. And then these wonderful wire loops for earrings. Old, old, with a terrific pursed expression on her face. 2 3 4" t x 2 1
