Fancy detailing to the front and side of the drawer too, and then these six carved heads, each different but all \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ewith sparking eyes staring straight ahead, the top pair looking like watchmen to me and the ones on the arms a bit like sphinx!  Clearly the maker of this was having a lot of fun, I'd guess making it as a love token of sorts for a sweetheart--one part useful object, one part throne for a sewing queen! (Perhaps appreciation for perpetually mending his socks.) \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e 16 1\/2\" t x 9 3\/4\" w x 13 1\/2\" d.
