Rainbow Colored Rings on Post Wooden Stacking Toy heron With their varied heights running

With their varied heights running in pairs

though certainly an unusual one

a tribal culture based primarily in Rwanda and Burundi

There are small nubs on opposite sides of the vessel to which a handle likely once was attached

perhaps from a water spatter—as documented

Rainbow Colored Rings on Post Wooden Stacking Toy heron With their varied heights runningAnother beautiful old wooden stacking toy; I just can't pass these by. The post on this one is topped with a red ball and threaded just at the bottom end, and includes nine variously sized round blocks to arrange and re arrange. A classic and indestructible toy for the kids, or a great interactive sculpture for you! I am not certain of age but think likely 1940s 50s, and possibly made by Holgate. 8 3 4" tall x 3 5 8" widest. Good vintage condition,
