I actually think this lovely bone brush might have been made--more than a hundred years ago I believe--for cleaning typewriters

black paint on solid wood

3 1/2" long x 2 1/8" tall x 3/4" thick

I think mostly the work of the child of a potter and a few dated from 1991

C. 1860s Mourning Pendant with Daguerreotype Portrait of Young Man in Folding Case antique school drawing I actually think this lovely(first image shows both front and back of pendant) I'm not at all an expert on early photography, but I look a lot, and follow my eye, and am learning along the way. I do know it is not very often I come across mourning pendants lockets, which is what this is, with dag portrait of a young man on one side and a glass windowed niche on the flip side for holding a lock of hair. The hair locket on this one was never filled or at least holds nothing now
