is a clearly much loved old shop brush with a gorgeous patina-and much life in it yet

I have not touched the wood on this--there is some wear

Charming Old Hand-carved Wooden Cow with Leather Ears flag signaling is a clearly much lovedAbout the sweetest thing I've ever seen, this pinkish cow has a black dog companion, listed separately, but definitely by the same maker. They're both terrific, made of three pieces of wood, with tiny nails showing on the sides. With leather ears, tiny painted eyes, and beautifully aged over lots of years. 4 7 8" l x 3 7 16" t x 1 3 16" w, with some paint loss as obvious but very good overall condition, sturdy and steady on her feet.
