Item Description
Vintage French folk art hand-carved wooden rabbit trinket box, roughly circa 1920–1950. Carved out of hardwood, it features a smooth finish, detailed elongated ears laying along its back, and a distinct horizontal seam through the center where the top half lifts off to reveal a hidden storage compartment.
The face of the rabbit features simplistic, hand-carved folk art details that give it a rustic and expressive character. The eye is shaped like a stylized leaf or almond, deeply incised into the wood with a clearly defined central pupil line. The nose and whiskers are defined by three curved lines are etched onto the side of the snout to mimic whiskers, tapering down toward a small, notched indentation that forms the mouth.
Dimensions: 11" L, 5" W x 8 1/4" H
Condition: a notable stable structural crack running entirely through the wooden hind foot of the rabbit box, along with minor wood chips, surface wear, and age-related splitting on the adjacent carved details.
