Make Do Hybrid: Antique Darning Egg with Clothes Pin Handle antique game scorer forgive my terrible photos

forgive my terrible photos

and in my world one can never have too many pretty boxes

with the iron hearts making a useful surface for scraping shoes and boots across

with the hand-painted pipe rendered in relief

in good shape structurally and not fragile

Make Do Hybrid: Antique Darning Egg with Clothes Pin Handle antique game scorer forgive my terrible photosA very sweet old thing, the likes of which I've never seen a make do darning egg I believe, with a clothes pin used for its handle. Looks to me like just one small iron nail with nice bleed around it securing the two parts together, but its as solid and sound as can be. 5 1 2" l x 2" x 1 1 2" and in good antique condition.
