Elegant Old (Sailor Made?) Hanging Ball in Cage Whimsy with Very Sharp Point danish design objects There in a horizontal surfaceI have a feeling this whimsy was made by a sailor with the sharply pointed end rather like that of a fid. Whatever the case, an old one, and a beauty, which would quite hold its own on the wall, hanging from one nail. 5 3 16" x 13 16" x 13 16". Very good condition.
