A stunning and unique Victorian toy ram figure on wheels, believed to be estate made. Made of weighted wood and meticulously hand-painted. Exquisite painted detailing on the face and around the eyes. The ram sits on a decorated wood base with painted wood wheels. One wheel is slightly damaged but it does not effect presentation or stability. Generations of playtime have given this piece a gorgeous patina. A completely unique Victorian nursery relic and decorative piece.
