Ten Little Old Erzgebirge Carved and Hand-painted Wooden Pigs turned wood antique clothes pin and which makes a handyI have to think this collection of 10 antique German hand carved and painted little wooden pigs was formed over time, gathering a pig or two from various sets of farm animals.

(And, happily, some balance well on the backs of others!) Very sweet. Largest
