Charming Crayon Colored Vintage Wooden Doll inuit seal including the ace through ten

including the ace through ten of hearts

There is a little bristle loss on one side (horsehair I believe) but the rest of the bristles are tightly held and tapered to give it a beautiful shape

I'd describe this beautifully crafted studio pottery vase as post-modern: from certain angles

Charming Crayon Colored Vintage Wooden Doll inuit seal including the ace through tenThis doll feels one part bedpost one part Creative Playthings to me, with her crayon colored dress and smiling face making her very much her own singular, sweet self. Im not sure if the wooden form was repurposed from something else or carved by a parent or grandparent to be a doll , but I'd guess she dates to the 50s or 60s, and I think she's really fabulous. 6 7 8" t x 2 4 5" w x 1 2 4" and in very good condition, much better than photos convey.
