My wife surprised me tonight with this wooden stamp tray. We saw it a couple of weeks ago at an antique market, and I didn't know she'd bought it.





Don't know if it's an antique or folk art, but it looks old. Kind of neat, eh? And thoughtful too.

I like it! What a pain it can be to pick up a stamp from a flat surface (using tongs). The curved surface ensures your beauties are easy to pick up and manage.

That's really neat! Is it a watermarking tray?

It's very nice, and everyone seems to like it, but no one really knows what it is! Quite the mystery.

What a wonderful surprise.

I find it intriquing that the label says "stamp" and not "stamps". It would seem that the tray had a purpose other than just to hold stamps.
