An assortment of various decorative and folk art items. The collection includes three natural animal horns. One horn features hand-painted alpine floral motifs, resembling edelweiss, and a serrated rim, characteristic of mid-20th-century souvenirs from European alpine regions such as Switzerland or Germany. It bears a small white adhesive label with the number 1001. A second, larger horn is fitted with a multi-coloured braided textile cord in red, yellow, and blue, consistent in style with novelty sounding horns or tourist trumpets. The third horn is smaller with a dark composite-material tip. The lot also contains a vintage bottle stopper fashioned as a medieval close helm with a functional hinged visor, constructed from silver-toned cast metal on a cork-tipped shaft. A small, circular lidded brass box is included, featuring an embossed five-pointed star and a central red glass cabochon on the lid. A large, hand-carved wooden ladle with an elongated handle and a distinctive bifurcated bowl represents a piece of wooden folk art. Additionally, there is a vintage architectural printing block consisting of a metal plate mounted on a wooden base, engraved with a detailed depiction of a Gothic cathedral or castle.
