No, it is not.
Is it a long, lost item from Frida Kahlo's forgotten seaside vacation home?

Nope.
But it is a deliciously sensational find by a Phoenix registered nurse who, in a moment of genius pressured the antique shop to meet her price with a smile, and then gloriously hand-painted by the same with common craft acrylics in a little longer moment of more genius. While it is true the design is not original, her execution of it far surpasses the grossly over-priced version she spied at the shop which first inspired her fit of marvelous creativity. I know, because I saw it. The swirly knobs are to die-for.
(I'd like to see what she does when suturing a cut or wrapping a sprain). Well done, my friend Cathy Mitchell, R. N. extraordinaire!

Not much that could not be done on! Methinks she has a niche there...
Go for it, Cathy, R.N.
oh my gosh! I LOVE it!
So cute! I want one.
By the way- what an inopportune moment for our phone conversation to get cut short! I was NOT trying to boast about what fantastic singers we are! Well- I kind of was.....but in a "We blend well together and I'm excited!" kind of way.
