Does anyone know, please, what these are? My guess would be some sort of stand or rest but for what? Also the significance of the different symbols?
I purchased these to make a stand for an ornamental knife. They are the perfect shape to mount on a mahogany plinth to display my Khukuri.
Each piece has a different inlaid symbol and a carved base. Although of similar size and patterns they are all slightly different so probably not mass produced.
Measurements approx :
Height 65mm
Width 80mm
Depth 25mm
Thank you in anticipation of any forthcoming advice.
