A Whimsical Black Forest Double Box
Modelled as a Fox & Hare
Carved from Lindenwood, the fox and the hare standing on their hind legs and dressed in formal attire, arms linked, the hare holding turnips while the fox rests his hands on a dagger; each head hinged and opening to reveal compartments.
Swiss, circa 1880
A similar, although smaller, example is illustrated in The Antique Collectors' Club book "Swiss Carvings: 'The Art of the Black Forest' 1820-1840," on page 61.
