Lovely, Early Old Set of Color Cubes in Wooden Box pipe dream including that fantastic pure pattern

including that fantastic pure pattern of the rug beside her bed

I purchased it at an estate sale in Waltham

and how the form of the bulge pretty much exactly echoes the form of the body

I'm forever on the hunt for anything glazed this rich matte green

Pine I think and definitely with some age on it

Lovely, Early Old Set of Color Cubes in Wooden Box pipe dream including that fantastic pure patternOne of the things I love about these old U. S. Embossing Co Color Cubes, is that each set has its own personality, based on when made and how much used over the years. While a small set at 16 blocks, I think this is my favorite set I've had, with the color on the old painted surfaces now feeling soft and almost ethereal, and also the solid blue ones appearing almost black. These are an early set, in a wooden bottomed box rather than a cardboard one
