Antique Oak Bentwood Dry Measure 4" Signed H.S. ORANGE

Description: An early bentwood dry measure with an attractive oak appearance which has darkened with age. It's a smaller size measuring 4 inches tall with a 7" diameter.

Over the years the surface has acquired a rather wonderful, smooth surface which adds to the original beauty. It bears the incision stamped signature HS ORANGE on the bottom.
