Nautical Folk Art Hand Carved Wooden Whimsy
About the Item
American whimsy with traditional 'ball in cage' decoration, all carved and whittled from one continuous piece of wood, circa early 20th century. The bottom tip suggests that this piece was intended to mount to something else (it does not stand erect on its own). Often, these 'sticks' were nautical carvings, so this could have been an ornamental fitting for a boat. Nice age / patina; no losses.
