Carved Shoe with Bear Cub Inside! golden wheat it works summer to winter

it works summer to winter and with everything--I think it would be the perfect piece to wear with jeans and a t-shirt while throwing a pot or with a breezy linen dress to a farm-to-table dinner

While certainly a functional base for a dramatic floral arrangement

I think it would look fabulous filled wth succulents or a mother of pearl plant

with a bit of lost stitching just at the very end

no notable splits or other issues

Carved Shoe with Bear Cub Inside! golden wheat it works summer to winterYou know I'm a sucker for a little hand carved shoe, and all the better that it should have a bear inside! If this had been done in porcelain or carved in a more refined way I think it might be too cute for me, but as is I think it is exactly right! Those little front paws and oh, that little face! 3 3 4" l x 2 7 8" t x 1 1 4" w and in great condition, with a fair amount of age. A pretty perfect stocking stuffer, for sure.
