Vintage Painted Folk Art Carving of Blonde Woman with Bright Red Lips pottery trivet While I appreciate them

While I appreciate them

It is in excellent condition and measures 8 1/2" across at handles

They feel to me midway between Italian reliquaries and Victorian glass domed waxworks

everyone covets old primitive boards

Vintage Painted Folk Art Carving of Blonde Woman with Bright Red Lips pottery trivet While I appreciate themI love this woman, including for feeling like she has been around the block, and around the block again. She makes me think a bit of Laura Dern in Wild at Heart, and of the mother in Shameless, and she's definitely got a bit of the mermaid and a bit of the country western singer to her too. And a bit of the figurehead; I imagine her mounted to the dashboard of a classic 1970s car, guiding the way forward (perhaps in the wrong direction.) 7 5 8" x 4 3
