Hearts Inside Hearts, Charming Old Hand-carved Heart-shaped Box old painting on wood soft sand colorOne of two antique heart shaped boxes today, as who can every have too many hearts, and it is always time for a valentine. I don't come across hand carved heart shaped boxes like this very often, and when I do they are quite precious. I love the curvaceousness o this one, and the heart inside of heart inside of heart staining. This one came of of the personal collection of a New England dealer, from whom I also purchased the story of Witenose the Cat!
