Subject:What is this thing?

See photos. My mom told me it was a fertility good luck charm from India. It seems to be made of stone. I don’t know it’s origin, but it’s been in our family since I was a kid In the 70’s at least. It may have been been brought from Italy. My grandmother had a lot of antiques there, but mostly European furniture (now all sold). Thanks!

My post provided a link that for some reason did not show up. I'll try it again.
