Antique Early 1900s Folk Art Tobacco Jar

Antique early 1900s folk art tobacco jar

This beautiful piece of folk art was hand carved in France at the beginning of the 20th century. It is a fine example of skilled craftsmanship and depicts a bird shaped sculpture on the lid, with the head and beak made from an old tobacco pipe.

A piece like this would make a striking addition to any collection or cabinet of curiosities—a true conversation piece with strong historical character.

Despite being over a century old, the jar remains in good condition, showing only minor signs of wear. The soft, time-earned patina enhances its authenticity and charm. One of the bird’s glass eyes is missing, which is reflected in the price.
