Early Basket
An early swing handle basket in excellent condition. The wrapped thick rim, uneven splint and carved bent handles are indicative of a 19th c. handmade basket. Measures 11'' x 11'' x 6''.
Early Yellow Ware
Two 19th c. yellow ware tea or waste bowls for collecting used tea leaves. Good antique condition - the larger one having a small rim flake and the smaller one having a tight line (see photos). Both have crazing and minor stains. All in all, quite nice for such rare mocha and white banded bowls. 6.75'' x 3.5'' and 6.25'' x 3''.
Old Mill Spools
A pair of antique wooden textile mill spools with battery operated taper candles. The spools measure just 4.25'' tall and have a well worn black finish. The 6.5'' mustard taper candles operate with 2 AA batteries and have a built in timer feature.
Vintage Wooden
Clothespin Bundle
A bundle of (8) vintage wooden clothespins wrapped in an antique quilt scrap and tied off with jute and a button. They range in size from 3.5'' long to 4'' long, with most being in the 3.5'' range.
$6.50

Tin Molds
Two vintage tin food molds for your country kitchen. Both are in vintage/used condition. The larger mold has a swirl design and measures 6.25'' x 2''. The smaller fluted mold measures 5'' x 2''. This listing price is for both molds.
Storage Jar
An English pottery storage jar with molded bands, roulette wheel decorations and decorative handles.
8'' t. x 8.25'' w. The lid is 6.75'' diam. Overall condition is good. One handle has a nip out of it and there are a couple of tight cracks on the lid as seen in the photos.
Tin Tole Box
This antique metal cash/document box has been painted in a traditional tole design. While the box did not originally have tole decoration, the current painted finish was more than likely done in the 1960's when there was a resurgence of interest in the craft. Measures 9.5 x 6.5 x 3.5.
Knife Cutlery Tray
A nice primitive wooden cutlery / utensil / knife box with good patina and lines. The two section box measures 13'' x 9'' x 3.25''. The carved handle measures about 5'' above the base board. Good vintage condition with one long side a bit separated from the rest of the tray.
