AMAZING & IMPRESSIVE VINTAGE MEERSCHAUM TOBACCO JAR w/ HAND CARVED 6 OWL MOTIF

Description

I have searched the world over via the internet and I can not find anything like this Amazing & Impressive hand carved 6 Owl motif tobacco container. Starting with my first picture you see 3 owls in a tree & as I turn the jar clockwise you see a tree & then you have 2 more owls in a tree & then another tree. Next is the amazing owl carved on the top of the lid & then the smooth inner part of the lid & the inside of the jar with the cork lining. This item is NEW & NEVER USED. I am not sure of its age. My mother was a big owl collector. My dad opened his first pipe & tobacco shop in 1969 & we don't know when this item came into his hands. My guess is the 70's when meerschaum goods were very big business. Weight is 21.1 oz. Overall height is about 5". Bottom diameter is about 3 1/2". Diameter of top where the cork is around the inside is 2 3/8". Height without lid is about 4". I find no makers mark, brand name,or signature anywhere on this item.
A Very Rare & Unique piece of art. With the amount of carving on this piece it compares to at least 6 hand carved Meerschaum pipes. Think of how much time it took to carve this incredible jar.
The item will be bubble wrapped & professionally packed to insure it arrives safely.
