someone at some point took care to re-purpose the pair of figures

8" long x 5 3/8" deep x 2 1/2" tall

There is a tear to one corner of box and cubes show some use but are still bright and great looking

Finely Carved Blonde Wood Whimsy Chain with End Hooks - Smaller of Two red mouth I've learned these old locksThis is the second of two small vintage carved whimsy chains with end hooks I am listing by the same maker, I believe this one with especially tiny (5 8 inch!) links.

I don't think it is especially old but quite nicely done and certainly not made yesterday. 8 1 2" long x 7 8" at
