Three Old German Painted Wooden Geese on Green Bases Sweden super simply made then so

super simply made then so carefully and lovingly punch decorated to frame the watch it once would have held

serving up matches to cowboys

and certainly it bears a strong resemblance to the iconic folk art lion of John Bell (1800–1880) from the Shenandoah Valley

and then through her fantastic illustrations for the book of Inuit folk tales

Three Old German Painted Wooden Geese on Green Bases Sweden super simply made then soFor the menagerie, three very sweet, very old, very little little painted wooden geese, German I believe, probably from an old barnyard set. It doesn't take a whole lot to sell me on old wooden animals, but I must say I think these are pretty charming! Sold as a set of three. They range from 1 1 4" to 1 5 8" tall and are about 2" long and 3 4" deep. Well worn, with some paint loss, but structurally just fine.
