hand-sewn habit

made to look antique but clearly of their period

Although there is an established precedent for casket plates being framed

I almost never buy parian ware that is not 19th century

no one dug these up- It was common practice for ornaments and name plates to be removed before the casket went into the ground

Sleeve: 19”

Very good paperback with just some light edgewear

after he died of AIDS

It’s made of simple base metal with paste jewels

Heavily worn with chipping to the frame and two holes in the canvas

This little devil dates to the late 19th to early 20th century
