Carved Little Girl with Wonderfully Open Face fine engraving and became known for finelyI've kept this little girl near me for quite a while, but this seems just the right moment to share her. The openness of her brown face breaks my heart, looking quite ready for her first day of school, perhaps en route to leading the free world! With chunky black shoes, and one hand opened out to the side as if to hold the hand of a comrade. Full of life and hope. 4 1 2" t x 1 3 4" w x 1 1 16" d and in very good condition, c. 1940s or so I think.
