Old Carved Figure with Tall Cap and Wonderful Profile wooden tool box 5ʺw ×14" t and in

5ʺw ×14" t and in very good condition

I also really love the way the handle of the piece housing two balls reads as yet another ball in cage as it locks into the other piece

as they were meant to be

though my house at least is filled with things monogrammed for other people

Old Carved Figure with Tall Cap and Wonderful Profile wooden tool box 5ʺw ×14" t and inA wonderful and very expressive carved figure I think, who I take for a man of the woods in many senses! Theres quite a primitive elegance to him I think, and a bit of surface splitting that makes it appear even as if hes got a cloak drawn around him which to me makes also makes him feel a bit French! (From one angle, with face in profile, he actually reminds me a bit of Punch from Punch and Judy, and also a bit of Napolean!) Fantastic dry wood
