it's a special small rug for a special spot

I haven't found much information about David Heger

but overall its is in very good antique condition with all of the seams holding tight

Curious Old Pewter Cradle Shaped Box with Baby! Mexican folk art pottery it's a special small rugAnother very unusual one, which I have tried hard to find out something about, with no luck at all, including attempts to trace the mark. A box for storing silver diaper pins? A container for a child's ashes? A mold? I really have no idea, but find it quite an evocative and slightly haunting object. Definitely pewter and I assume British, with a mark that looks to read ICH together with a lion. If you know more than I do about this, please share! 4 9
