Moon Jump

9”h x 6.25”w x 4.75”d

I always wondered whether I should have called this piece Cow Toss. Those little legs don't look very good for jumping, but the old nursery rhyme does claim that 'the cow jumped over the moon'. The knife will have to run away with the spoon in another piece.  I found the cow drawing in an old natural history book, the star chart in an old atlas and the moon came from a vintage coffee label. The shelf is edged with a vintage yardstick.
