    Fully labeled on the bottom, but I cannot read the tag I think is important. It is 20" long. There are a few that come up when you search Oberlander but I don't think it is the maker. Any ideas?
    TIA, Bryan

    Oberländer Handarbeit means hand made from the Berner Oberland, part of Switzerland, around Bern.

    I saw those. I am hoping the second tag is the actual maker because it is a numbered piece and maybe those don't have that sticker

    It looks like it could be by the same craftsperson, but Brywil's is the only one with a maker's label.
    There could be a whole village making similar carvings.

    Looks like it is.
    Oberländer Handarbeit just means handmade in the Berner Oberland, an area with many craftspeople.

    The smaller sticker looks to have the same EB as the other sticker.

    You're right, it does. I could only make out the E on the smaller sticker.
