Mid-Century Teak Boy and Girl Figures vintage painting perhaps made to store crickets

perhaps made to store crickets

as is its traditional purpose

I don't know who BL is or was

and just a fabulous object to have around

which I mounted in a simple white frame

Mid-Century Teak Boy and Girl Figures vintage painting perhaps made to store cricketsI especially love the hats and feet of this mid century boy and girl, and the fact that she is the taller of the two. I am not sure the maker of this pair as I have not found their exact match, but they are done in the manner of Jacob Jensen (Denmark), best known for his viking figures, and I am pretty certain they are Scandinavian. Found at a fantastic estate sale loaded with mid century ceramics and other wonderful objects from around the world,
