Beautiful Antique Handmade Tin Dipper acrobat toy And then clusters of people

And then clusters of people all around with their umbrellas in hand

with hinges on the backside of each sweetly cutout bird (three facing one direction

but its not so large as to be overwhelming

as the manner and decoration reminds me very much of antique Japanese wooden nesting eggs and horse racing games inside treen boxes I've found on a few occasions

I find these so beautiful

Beautiful Antique Handmade Tin Dipper acrobat toy And then clusters of peopleA very tender and poetic feeling antique tin dipper, which I believe would have been used for scooping water, and likely as a drinking cup too, and may have been used as a ladle of sorts for most everything else as well. I find the irregular handmade form of it very lovely, with folded over tin around the lip and at the edges of handle, and then best of all that arch of wire at the end of the handle for hanging. 9 7 8" l. Bowl is 2 7 8" in diameter x
