Eglantine American Tobacco Company 20 Cent Plugs Box vintage claws and 3/4" in height

and 3/4" in height

This piece was created at  Lapid Pottery Works in Tel Aviv

though it reminds me so much of the work of Clarice Cliff (British)

It feels rather like a pure embodiment of spring

Eglantine American Tobacco Company 20 Cent Plugs Box vintage claws and 3/4" in heightI really like the graphic quality of the big red EGLANTINE across one side of this old wooden box, with nice jointed corners to boot. It once held 18 tobacco plugs brick like masses of tobacco, from which pieces were bitten off or cut, then chewed but now is just a great box for holding tools, spices, art supplies, or whatever. Structurally solid, with a little damage to the surface of the wood on one corner, as pictured. 11 1 2" long x 5" deep x 2 5
