Tender Old Square Bottomed Nesting Hearts zip purse glued and silver painted on

glued and silver painted on one side

beyond words

but it's easy to use a couple of tacks or nails to fill in when one plays--the name of the game being to remove all pegs by jumping them one by one

and a relief carved heart at center

Tender Old Square Bottomed Nesting Hearts zip purse glued and silver painted onA small and sweet antique set of handmade graduated tin heart cutters, the squared bottoms and all a bit wonky forms of which really endeared them to me. Five valentines in one, very tender. Largest 1 7 8" x 1 11 16" x 15 16" d. One of the hearts (third from largest) has come un soldered at the overlap, as pictured in last two photos, no real matter.
