occasionally I come across on antique meerschaum pipe that I really fall in love with

and I'm quite smitten with them now

Many Georges, Antique Folk Art Plate with Cut Stamp Decoration and Threaded Ribbon antique painted iron ornament occasionally I come across onI found this one in Lancaster, PA a few weeks ago. Another permutation on postal stamp art I believe: looks to me like the George Washington silhouettes and all of the rest of the tiny cut paper bits were cut from stamps and envelopes, with cancellation marks showing here and there. Oh, the creative resourcefulness of yore, nothing going to waste. Wonderfully graphic against the black milk glass plate. With original (once surely brighter) pink ribbon
