Description from the seller

Two antique walnut Black Forest carvings with cuckoo + bird's nests with eggs.
Antique Black Forest hand-carved epergne bases—frequently crafted from linden or walnut wood in Switzerland's Brienz region during the late 19th century—are exceptionally versatile, highly collectible decorative objects. While originally sculpted to cradle hand-blown, wheel-engraved Bohemian glass trumpets or flower vases, missing glassware has led many modern collectors to cleverly repurpose these ornate wooden structures into rustic pillar candle stands.
Glass flutes are missing.
Dimensions: h = 36 cm
In good condition.
