19th Century folk art hand carved erotic religious figures
A matched pair which makes these quite rare as well as one figure being double sided, hand carved detail and dated to the late 19th century. Very quirky considering when you slide the reverse of the female form, it reveals that she has male genitalia also, controversial of the time to say the least. In overall good condition considering their age and pine material.
