Excellent Form, Excellent Paint: c. 1920s-40s Scratch Made Wooden Stables japanese antomical model I've developed such a fondness

I've developed such a fondness for these punch/perforated paper embroideries as they were done with much greater immediacy than needlepoint samplers on cloth

including just in a notebook

The piece measures 15 inches long and 1 5/8 wide at widest

and it seems pretty much like the pure embodiment of a hug

Excellent Form, Excellent Paint: c. 1920s-40s Scratch Made Wooden Stables japanese antomical model I've developed such a fondnessI love the lines in this one, and the paint on it too really quite an elegant structure in its way, as well as a humble, lovingly constructed one. With thin wooden crosses in each of the windows backed by clear film that film gone from the center window on one side but otherwise pretty well in tact. I'd like to see this one on a clean white shelf in a spare room though of course I'd also love to see it filled with horses!:) 12 1 4" l x 4 1 2" d x 5 1
