Five Balls in Cage Eight Inch Whimsy, Marion, Ohio, 1966 embroidered figure in traditional costume I don't spend a ton

I don't spend a ton of time looking at jewelry

Overall size is 14" by 11 1/4" with the area that holds the photo measuring 7" by 4 1/2"

Otherwise a little wear around the corners and edges

There is a bit of loss of paint in a few spots
