Ships, Folk Art, and Whimsey in Bottles

Wonderful representation of a wooden timbered raft floating down the river in a small chandelier type bulb. The raft is made from individual "logs." There are 2 men on the raft, one in the front and the other in the stern steering the raft with a long pole rudder. The raft has one mast with a unfurled sail. There is also a cargo box on the raft. The bulb is mounted in an upright piece of wood painted dark red that extends to a dark red wood base with a life buoy and a switch. When you push the switch a light illuminates the raft. Under the base is a cavity for the battery and wiring for the light.
