Lovely Old Carved Walnut Ball in Cage Whimsy with Octahedron Finial/Handle to hangr as if following the pathA beauty of an old whimsy, carved of walnut I believe, with very elegant elongated form, housing one small ball inside. Best of all this and this wonderfully faceted top end, which also functions as a handle should one wish to use it as a rattle. Lovely. 6 3 4" t x 1" w x 1" d. Very nice condition, no issues whatsoever, with very nice age to it.
