Charming Old Erzgebirge House with Yellow Roof noah's ark Drum measures 2 1/4" inThe combination of yellow roof and creamy white on this old house completely does it for me. I believe it is German Erzgebirge, earlyish 20th century, and while there is a lot of detail on what is technically the front and it is good all the way around, but it is the simplicity of the back side, with just these paned, not quite linearly placed windows, that I especially love. Great silhouette and dark red painted chimney too. Very charming. 5 3 16" w
