Sweet Little Old Whittled Ball in Cage Whimsy wooden animals on bases they depict children engaged inAnother week, another little whimsy, because I'll never pass these by, with each one is its own particular thing and a rustically whittled one like this really has the hand of its maker all over it. Pretty crude, but very sweet, with the ball inside not especially round, and tight in the cage, such that in some positions it will defy gravity! 3" x 1 1 16" x 7 8". One tiny split to one corner of "cage" as documented.
