Fantastic HUGE Sculptural Antique Chip Carved Tramp Art Box handmade wooden toy boat and carved with a couple

and carved with a couple of dimples to make it look just a tiny bit soft

which makes me think perhaps the box was made to hold a rosary

and later lived in Oaxaca

I believe it is Danish Modern

sadly at some point the cat lost one of his faces-- but displayed gray side facing remains pretty terrific I think

I found this one in New Hampshire near the Vermont border, spotted through the window of an antiques shop a few weeks ago that is only open Saturdays, so I went back yesterday to grab it, and gently heft it to my car! I've since done just a tiny bit of touch up with a black Sharpie not to repair real damage, but just to blend a few tiny spots where a little minor bumping had taken off the finish. It is quite a stunning thing to behold
