to my mind

How I love this deer

as well as--my favorites--notes about where certain items of value were stored in the house

I think they're just gorgeous

Pair of Tiny Gem Tintypes in Tiny Hand-carved Frames marble carving to my mindI'd never seen a tiny gem tintype in a hand carved frame before, but here these two are, perhaps made for setting on the mantle in a dollhouse. Uncommon and pretty special I think, and I like the faces and attitudes on both of the subjects perhaps the heads of the household, or perhaps the serious daughter and out seeking his fortune son. For the lover of miniature wonders. Him: 1 1 8" x 1". Her 1 1 8" x 7 8". Good antique condition. Some dust on him
