Completely charming and adorable and beautifully executed vintage 1940s carved wood turtle figural brooch with black and white glass eyes. He is a great size and completely three dimensional and is just as much fun sitting on a table or desk as he is as a pin. A classic 1940s piece and rare to see one so well executed with such excellent detail.
3 inches long by 1 3/4 inches wide by 1 inch tall. Excellent condition. Photos enlarged to show detail.
