Item Details

Description

This is the most elaborate keep sake or memory box that we have ever seen. Finney's imagination never ceases to amaze. A full length drawer extends, when the swimming northern pikes head is pulled. The pike is swimming under the ice among a school of northern yellow perch and fresh water plants. All unnoticed by the serious, yet content skating raccoon. All carved and painted wood, with the raccoon displaying glass eyes, upswept tail, and vintage ice skates. The traces from his time on the ice have created loops and swirls on the painted surface of the top board. Truly an amazing folk art box. Measuring 11" x 19" x 18".

Condition
