Folk Art Barge with Great Lines and Great Color cigar box man Nat King Cole and Jimmy

Nat King Cole and Jimmy Durante

The yellow clay bottom points to it being from Ohio

This is one of my very favorite bud vases ever

just softening the edges a bit in just the right way

I just love this solid walnut top as an object

Folk Art Barge with Great Lines and Great Color cigar box man Nat King Cole and JimmyI want to call this a barge, because of its flat bottom and boxy form, but it feels rather more like a lobster boat in spirit! In any case I think it's fabulous, seeming like a box adapted in make do fashion to become a boat, with one ladder above and one leading below deck, and a little cutout window at the corner of the shelter, facing front. That gray and yellow paint combo really can't be beat and the lines and proportions are so good. 12 3 4" l x
