English Nutcracker Dated 1676.
Possibly sycamore very hard to tell,
lever mechanism,
chip carving and interesting lobed carving similar to Elizabethan Ruff collars or Jesters collars.
A few age cracks not serious or moving and a couple of old worm holes, all consumerate with age and not detrimental.
similar examples in Pinto and Owen Evan Thomas.
