About the Item

Nice, whimsical Folk Art chain whittled from one continuous piece of wood (spruce, in this case). One end features a hook, the other a clasp. The wood has a beautiful, varied tone; it is dark in places, and lighter in others, giving it a two-tone appearance at certain points. Very good, vintage condition with wear consistent with age / use. A great Primitive tabletop decorative object that adds contrast to any decorating style or beautifully accompanies a Folk Art collection. Listing is for the medium chain alone. Measures: L 29.75" x H 1.1" x D 1.5".
