Pink and Black Painted Long Wooden Snake! demijohn 1 7/8" at longestOne could use this snake to play stickball, or to smash a piata, or to hold down a pile of papers on a windy day. I think its pretty great, painted bubblegum pink with these black diamonds all down its back, and then a funny little face, complete with eyebrows at the rounded end. Pretty fun. 23 1 4 long x 2 3 4" wide and 1 3 4" deep. Solid wood. Scratches and dings and scuffs here and there show that it's been used for a variety of purposes!
