A wonderful antique Black Forest miniature carved wood figural cotton reel or thread holder in the form of a maid or serving girl, carrying a tankard of ale and a plate with bread and cheese on it. She stands on a shaped base which would take the thread. This tiny piece is even smaller than the similar reels I listed last week and the amazing detail is best seen under a magnifying glass.
It is in good condition and measures just under1.5 inches (3.5 cm.) high and the base measures 0.5 inches (1.5 cm.) across.
The photos can be enlarged for more detail.
