Old Wooden Bossing Mallet or Hammer - Longer Head antique whetstone The lovely solid brass leaf-shaped

The lovely solid brass leaf-shaped Butterfly Bush tray was designed by Oskar Hansen for Virginia Metalcrafters in 1948

which would look terrific filled with just about any smallish plant

I love the rounded shape of this small vase

Just a sweet little brush with a great patina

and the dynamism of the whole thing

Old Wooden Bossing Mallet or Hammer - Longer Head antique whetstone The lovely solid brass leaf-shapedI could not resist this lovely old wooden bossing hammer, used for shaping sheet metal, which I just love for its shape, beautiful patina, and feel in the hand.
