Most measure in the neighborhood of  8 x 6 or so

I love the carved faces on this pair of trinket boxes

Large English Woolen Sampler with Alphabets, Darning Patterns, and Deer boaters on river painting vibrant colorOne of the things I really love about this unusually large English schoolgirl sampler is that it includes both alphabets and numbers (including roman numbers I V) AND darning samples (the square patterns on the lower half), which I especially love. Plus that wonderful bounding stag at center! Pretty decorative patterns along every edge, too, each different. Really super sweet, and in very good condition; I am uncertain of the age and am not a sampler
