though possibly French

The box itself is carved from one piece of wood

cracks or other issues at all that I can see

I think they are really fabulous and lend themselves to a variety of display permutations

19th Century Punched Tin Pie Safe Panel #2 Rod of Asclepius though possibly FrenchOne of two of these antique hand punched tin panels listed today, found together in inland Maine, and which just struck me as really lovely, especially with light coming through from behind. These would have been panels in an old pie safe, with the punched holes allowing for air flow. I love the patterns, here what I believe would properly be described as a fylfot at center, and what I would descibe as curtained corners. 14" x 10 1 8". Very good
