Sheep and Egg candy container
Price = $85
Sheep and Egg candy container measures approximately 8 3/4" tall by 5" wide. The German head was molded from an old one in my collection and then painted and covered in antique cotton batting. The egg is of paper mache painted in muted tones and decorated with small reproductions of antique Easter postcards and small gold paper stars. There is a gathered crepe paper collar and vintage ribbon around the sheep's neck. It opens at the bottom to reveal a small tube that would have been used for a special treat long ago.
