Description
A beautiful relic of times past, this handmade rustic Americana 19th century wood barber pole is every bit as captivating today as it would have been in the last century. Pole is connected to block base by antique hardware on base with a carved wood globe on top. Slit in side of wood (see photos) illustrates where it was once hung from a building.
