This is an amazing example by artisan wood carvers from over 100 years ago. Excellent carving with minor flaws. A hand is missing on one of the dwarfs and there is a line on the back of the tree. The one inkwell glass bottle has a chip on it. The 100 year old carved wood, craftsmanship - I placed/rubbed professional oil on it on a regular basis so the wood would not dry out, it has been very well taken care of for the last 40 years.
Overall the condition for a piece this age is very good. I have not seen another one like it in 40 years, beautiful piece. This item shows the quality, workmanship and craftmanship I mentioned above.
