Geisha Girl Automaton. Paris: Pierre Mayer, ca. 2002. Handmade wooden automaton with exposed works. The Geisha raises the cup to show a ball underneath. As the crank is turned, the cup descends, and she waves a fan, the cup is then raised, and the ball has vanished ? only to reappear on her shoulder. Hardwood and metal construction. 6 x 3 x 7?. Signed by the maker. Working, with instructions. Very good.
