Old Wooden Egg! thermos became a popular means ofI believe this is an old darning egg, but I think it's just a great object to have sitting around, preferably somewhere that it can be easily picked up! Good for holding while contemplating the meaning of the universe, but also things far more mundane! Very well worn with scratches, scrapes andblack marks all of which contribute to making it wonderful! 4" long x 2 3 4" in diameter.
