Vintage Oriental Carved Wood Devils Ball

I am calling this a Devil’s ball as the principal is the same but generally they are ball shaped, this one is elongated with an applied top and bottom, such a clever thing to create, so involved and easily messed up, the carver takes a single piece of wood and carves individual moving balls with the frame, there are at least 3 balls contained and the outside has a dragon scale type pattern. This one is made from sandalwood and hung in a wardrobe to keep clothes smelling nice and to keep the moths away. It comes good condition with a age crack on one side and measures just under 5 inches long.
