Vintage ANRI Wood Carved Mechanical Bottle Stopper Pop Up Hat Boy Hand Painted

A rare and highly collectible vintage ANRI mechanical bottle stopper, hand-carved in the Italian Tyrol region. This charming piece features a gentleman in a green jacket; when the wooden lever on his back is pressed, a small child's face pops up from inside his hat. This "Jack-in-the-box" style mechanism is a signature of ANRI's whimsical barware from the mid-20th century. A must-have for any serious ANRI or vintage folk art collector.
