SOLD Beautifully Primitive Antique Handmade Pine and Tin Marble Maze basket with notched wood handle and what a lovely exampleI've had one or two marble "mazes" of this sort over the years, but this is the oldest and the most primitively handmade I've seen, as so of course I think the most beautiful. Turning it over reveals the wood base to be quite a ways from perfectly round, and so the maze, constructed of tin strips set into radially carved niches, is oblong too. I'm sure I've got a few old marbles lying around that I'll send along with it so to be able to play it
