This functional reef has stretch baguettes embellished at the ends of alabaster acorns. The choice of scope made it possible to adapt to the size of the skein.
The object turns perfectly on itself on a wooden axis supported by a molded alabaster base. The whole rests on a base forming a basket supported by three little round alabaster feet.
A charming tool, from the old weather, which will delight collectors like lovers of unusual objects.
