Old Needlepoint Bookmark with Three Cats bobbin timer Unused back but a pencil

Unused back but a pencil written note that the artist was Miles Rehrig of Lehighton

It's a 13 inch-er whatever the case

but the old paint and softened edges and just all over patina on these is to my eye just spectacularly beautiful

With a slot cut under one arching window on one of the short sides

This little vase is just big enough for a few stems (a couple of sprigs of red berries would be perfect in it right now)

Old Needlepoint Bookmark with Three Cats bobbin timer Unused back but a pencilMuch better in person, this one made more purely happy to discoverwhat a lot of love went into making this three cat bookmark, done with very small needlepoint stitches. The perfect soft green to set off the trio, best I think the big orange face at center, with very expressive black whiskers! There was once wide green ribbon sewn across the backside, much of which has deteriorated, but a new backing could easily be sewn on if desired. Very charming.
