Description
Fur Rabbit in Cabbage Windup Clockwork Automaton Figure. The rabbit-in-cabbage design, though rarely available today, is said to be one of the most popular automata ever produced. This piece likely dates to the early part of the 20th Century. Its form most closely resembles those attributed to famed French toymakers Roullet et Decamps. Clockwork mechanism causes bunny to creep in and out of its cabbage, sometimes quickly, as if scared back into its hiding place.
Dimensions are 6.75 in h x 5 in w x 6.5 in d. Condition is good, with a few worn areas and discoloration throughout cabbage. Rabbit's fur appears quite intact. Operability is working but sluggish. Please call or email for a detailed condition report.
