Sweet Old Whittled Whimsy Rattle Arizona basket In perfect conditionThis super sweet, super old little whimsy made me realize I am often describing things are carved when I should be saying whittled, meaning made using only a knife and if there were ever an object that would seem to embody the act of whittling, I think it might be it! I really like its rustic ness and the simplicity of the form like a cheerio on a barbell! and can almost picture its maker with their knife in hand sitting at the end of the day
