12 Inch 19th Century Six Ball in Cage Painted Pine Whimsy with Rich Patina choppy seascape and standing in front ofHard to tell the scale here but this is a large one a foot long and an old one, 19th century I believe, with remnants of original dry red paint. The six balls inside are fairly small for the "cage" meaning that they naturally land in a staggered way, as show in first several photos, which I really love. Terrific old patina, substantial presence, nice both stood on end and laid horizontal. 12" x 2 1 8" x 2 1 8". Very good antique condition, no losses,
