Pair of Double Sided Whimsy People in Bottles! antique slide lecture box I think of this as

I think of this as a perfect everyday vase to keep on the kitchen counter

The orange beaded face of woman in profile at right

It appears the "Color Cubes" label from the original box was glue to the exterior lid

just presumed color fading

Pair of Double Sided Whimsy People in Bottles! antique slide lecture box I think of this asSuch a fun pair, not especially old, but unlike any I've see before and really wonderfully done. (Plus, how the heck did someone make them?!) I especially love their double sidedness, with different moods personalities expressed on each side, such that one might configure them with different dynamics between them. I might take them for a mother and child with the mother in excellent blue suit and child in red necktie! Great faces, great details,
