Black Forest Rabbit Heads

Rare matching pair of carved Black Forest rabbit heads with glass eyes.  Heads of animals were often carved and sold in pairs, but they are infrequently found together now.  These are angled in slightly opposite directions, allowing them to face toward or away from one another.  Rabbit heads are much harder to find than those of deer and some other animals. Original paint with very little wear.  Swiss, circa 1890-1910.  Plaque made for display only and not for sale.  Heads will hang on wall.   Apprx. 12" from tips of ears to bottom of plaques. (CG-23)
