Modular Tower of Balls in Cages with Bulb On Top, Architectural Old Carved Whimsy

Regular price $75.00

This is one of three old carved wooden whimsies I purchased together from a dealer in New Hampshire, all listed today, and I think quite likely all done by the same person. Among my favorite sorts of whimsies are ones I would describe as architectural--this one like a tall and narrow tower, standing tall on its own, with very satisfying modular stack of four balls in four cages, making a vertical grid. And the, a final almost-ball as finial at top, which would double as a handle should one want to rattle it!

 9 1/4" t x 1" x 1" and in very good condition, nice age, nice dry patina. All carved from one piece of wood.
