    Description

    FROM MADEIRA WITH LOVE.....
    Vintage hand carved articulated / mechanical wine bottle cork / stopper.
    Made of wood in the style of Anri carvings, traces of a paper label in German language
    indicate it origins are probably Germany or Switzerland.
    A man wearing a felt hat, holding his hat by the brim, will tip his hat when you pull a string at the back.
    It has survived in working order.  No breaks or cracks in the wood.  The felt hat is a bit faded, age related.
    It measures 14cm (6") top to bottom.
    I inserted a standard size playing card in one photo for size referrence.
    MUCH OBLIGED
