I love a chunky tea bowl and a thick shino glaze even more

just a little cracking to the glaze circling the handle at the center of the lid

which gives him a Lincoln-esque feel as well

Beautiful Old Interlocking Balls in Cage Carved Walnut Whimsy folk art pencil drawing brush side upI love carved whimsies that feel like tabletop scale architectural towers as this one does, even better for being able to rotate one section independently from the other. I also really love the way the handle of the piece housing two balls reads as yet another ball in cage as it locks into the other piece. Very nicely carved of walnut and found in Adams County, PA. 8 3 4 l x 1 1 16 wide and deep and in excellent condition, with good age to it for sure.
