Striped Wooden Toy Horn two-drawer chest It is very faintly stamped

It is very faintly stamped Sierra Leone on the bottom and I believe dates to the 1920s or so

or to use daily around the house

19th century Chinese export porcelain I believe

The polar bear stands less than an inch tall

Striped Wooden Toy Horn two-drawer chest It is very faintly stampedThis terrific old striped wooden horn makes a great sound, kind of like a crow call, and is satisfyingly loud! It might be there was once a mouthpiece extension of some kind, but it works great as is, and is fabulous looking, a bit like a tabletop lighthouse! 6 5 8 tall x 2 wide. Some wear to the paint and dings here and there, one small knick on the lip of the wide end. A sticker still on the inside says Made in Czechoslovakia, I'd guess 1940s or so.
