About the Item

A carved American folk wall pocket with serious presence. Shaped and pierced foliate back, layered construction, and a deep front pocket carved with a pierced GOOD LUCK inscription framing a central horseshoe. Equal parts decorative and symbolic. The surface retains its likely original finish with a lightly blistered texture you only get with age. The carving shows confident hand work, not factory repetition. Late 19th century. Honest wear throughout.
