Set of Four Early Erzgebirge Double (and Double Sided) Houses freemasons 2 1/16" t x 1More wonderful 19th c. German Erzgebirge hand painted housesthese four especially special for all being doubles, joined at 90 degree angles, and painted on both sides. Ill never get over the loveliness of these really old ones with their orange roofs and black grids of windows set against soft blues and creamy whites. So satisfying. 1 1 2 to 1 3 4 each side x 1 1 2 t to 1 3 4 t. Some smearing to the old paint, all to the good in my opinion.
