Beautifully Constructed Antique Folk Art Doll-Scale Rocker bunch of marbles framed in a gold painted

framed in a gold painted frame wired on the back for hanging

What a special thing now to be the caretaker of

which I have learned is called “yun-de

I just think it's a beautiful thing

with a nice mellow patina to the old gold paint
