Otherwise very good condition

I think it would make the perfect little vase or planter (a little cactus would seem most appropriate

but I've also learned these were sometimes used to time workers' breaks

measuring 7 1/2" x 5" x 1 7/8"

1870s or so--is so finely done

Great Old Folk Art Frame (Mirror) with Inlaid Stars and Diamonds pretty vase Otherwise very good conditionWith an opening just over 3" x 5", this lovely inlaid frame would be great for many things though it is pretty nice with a mirror in it too, as is the case now. Beautifully crafted, to my eye its holds folky and refined in perfect balance, fully both at once. Overall dimsensions: 8 13 16" x 6 3 4". I believe at least the darker wood is walnut. Excellent vintage condition, 1920s 40s I would guess. Currently it is fitted with a mirror with glued card
