Carved Wood Japanese Country House Bank

• 
• 

Carved wood bank in the shape of a Japanese country house. The windows and doors are carved. The wood is partially stained and fully varnished on the outside. The chimney has a hole as well as metal grommet, perhaps made for a pencil for accounting? The roof, solid except for a circular cutout for the coins to pass through, opens on a hinge to reveal the inside compartment, lined on the bottom with a velvet-like cloth. The house sits on a raised stand. The stand measures 7-3/4" x 4-1/4" with an overall height of 4-1/4". Solid piece in excellent condition. Original lock and 2 keys are included. Not recommended for young children as the nails holding the hinge in place have gone through the 1/2" walls and can be felt on the inside. The cutout in the roof is also quite rough.
