    Description

    Lovely vintage miniature hand painted box, signed by (retired) artisan Cindy Malon, IGMA Fellow.
    Cindy's work is simply, among the best and treasured by collectors.  Her pieces are distinct for their high level craftsmanship, precision, and distressed finish.  In Cindy's words, "Each piece is created to offer a sense of the toll taken by the passage of time".  This piece (vintage 90s) may have been designed as a candle box (?) or other multi-purpose box for small loose household items.
    Measures 1-1/8" wide x 9/16" deep x 1/2" tall (pegged bottom).  Lid opens.
    Not included in listing (but I will make a copy for you) is additional information about The Heartland Collection.  In Cindy's words:
    "Along with their appreciation of fine wood, our immigrant craftsmen brought with them a high level of competence, a purity of design, and a marvelous simplicity and directness which I have sought to combine with a patina evolving from years of loving use.
    Welcome to the world of the upper Midwest.  May you love it more than I, may you capture a way of life forever gone by including one or several of these pieces in your collection.  The result will be a comfortable ambiance and a gift of yesterday to your miniature setting."
    Am downsizing my collection, and take comfort finding others who enjoy as much:)
