Very Sweet Blue and White Painted Folk Art House Bank beautiful brush This very finely hand-embroidered textile

This very finely hand-embroidered textile is an example of counted thread embroidery

and became known for finely rendered

carved from one piece of wood--by the same maker I think as a smaller one I am listing separately

I'll never pass on a little wooden folk art house if I can help it

and have wanted to find one of these Victorian winder types since learning of their existence a couple of years ago

Very Sweet Blue and White Painted Folk Art House Bank beautiful brush This very finely hand-embroidered textileI'll never pass on a good little folk art house, and think this is a very sweet, nicely constructed one, 1930s 40s, made as a coin bank, and painted this cheerful white and blue. Plenty of wear around the slot in the roof telling us it surely accumulated some riches! There is a hole in the bottom via which coins or bills could be retrieved. 5 1 4" t x 5 3 4" w x 54 15 16" d and in good overall condition, nicely aged.
