Just Some Satisfying Very Old Blocks carved ladies shoe First half 19th cOld and weathered and beautiful for just those reasons. Once there was litho on a few of these, leaving some nice color and interesting surfaces behind. Good for arranging and using as little pedestals for other things. These just make me happy and I like to look at them. Pinkish: 2 1 4" l. Green: 1 5 8" x 1 5 8". Most or all of them 19th c. I believe.
