Very Fine Cut Paper Weaving #3 (Teapot!) small bowls and making opening the mail

and making opening the mail feel a little more festive

with the color on the old painted surfaces now feeling soft and almost ethereal

so I think perhaps these were produced during WWI as promotional give aways

There is a fair amount of wear to the paint

Very Fine Cut Paper Weaving #3 (Teapot!) small bowls and making opening the mailI just found three of these lovely old cut paper weavings, listed individually, and think they must have been done by a very dexterous and meticulous school girl, or more likely her teacher, as they are quite finely crafted. This one is burgundy and silver, and the first I've seen that is pictorial, woven to form a teapot! The paper weaving is neatly mounted on a piece of cream colored lightweight cardstock type paper. Overall: 9 1 8" x 9 1 8".
