Sweet shelf, the open branches below, which support the 12" x 6.5" upper shelf, are the tree into which 2 beautifully hand carved and anatomically elegant birds protect their nest and the 3 eggs within. Surprisingly free of loss or damage, it can display other of your collection of Black Forest carvings, or a clock, vase or your perfume collection in a bathroom. SO lovely! Full measurements noted on the photos.
Very good to excellent condition, the tiniest tip of beak blunted bu too other chips or losses. The top of the shelf shows age and a bit of altered stain of the years and use. Not unsightly, really, but bearing mention. I find no splits or cracks. A real treasure!
