Carving depicting a so called “Mercy Seat” (Mercy -Seat-atonement piece was an object that rested upon “The Arc of the Covenant” and was connected with the rituals of the day of atonement. 17th century. Some repairs to the gold sun burst. Some touch up of the bishop. Although bought in Sweden I feel it is German or eastern European. H. 38in(95cm).
