with some age for sure

and there is good relief to the carving

This hand thrown sugar bowl--which would also be great for keeping jam

I do wonder if it was designed as a tool to be used for anything else

Carved Little Puzzle Cross Whimsy brown and black with some age for sureThis very sweet little hand carved puzzle cross is harder than it looks; I removed one piece and it quickly came apart in my hand, requiring the assistance of my smart mother to put it back together! I believe it is quite old and made of walnut, and a great little object whether or not one touches it! 2" x 2" x 2" and in very good antique (I do believe) condition, with a nice patina.
