Sold by Forget-Me-Not Antiques

Very rare early to mid-18th century maple screw apart container, possibly to hold sponges used to apply make-up. Pole lathe turned. Good shrinkage. About 3” diameter x 3 1/2” tall. Wonderful untouched surface patina. The top has a 1 1/2” very tight shrinkage crack and a barely noticeable 1” shrinkage crack. Both have been glued at some point to keep them from expanding. Very rare. This is the only one I have ever seen.
