A 1920s manicure tl ws paired with a vintage brass dollhouse oil lantern to make this nice looking little tamper.

   Iridescent Green will apple juice backing and a bit of black and white striping detailing make this a four color piece.  Amazing how much care and effectiveness went into the making of simple items a century ago...we have lost so much.

   The stock for this tamper is, easily,  a hundred years old so please embrace the signs of wear and use.   To me, the patina doesn't detract,  it adds. I hope you agree.

   Thanks for looking...
