Beautiful Old Handmade Whisk Broom Arrowmont School the two met working on

the two met working on a WPA project in Virginia

The vase is signed with what looks like "Anul" and "© 1984"

but comes I believe from the Tonala region in Jalisco and resembles the work of Carlos Villanueva

I have not touched the wood

which are shot at 2x magnification as the crack is difficult to see without magnification

Beautiful Old Handmade Whisk Broom Arrowmont School the two met working onI'm kind of obsessed with this old handmade whisk broom. I find the way the bristles progress from lighter to darker so beautiful, telling me that whoever made this broom took great care with its making. And then there is the red hand stitched string holding it together; one can almost picture the loops being made, one by one. The wound wire on the top is pretty great too. So good. 7 1 2" tall x 3" wide x 1" which.
