Boy with Hatchet, Victorian A.M. King General Store Advertising Pocket Mirror plate and bowl I found this one at

I found this one at Brimfield and it is quite an extraordinary and beautiful piece of work--a Chinese embroidery on silk

or else use it as a platform for displaying other things

with one of them loose and easy to remove and then reposition in place--it will stay on fine

which included drawings
