<p>[QUOTE="Stephen Masters, post: 4062606, member: 20256"]I should add a few more photos from different angles - I'll have to do that when I'm back home again in a few days. However, to answer your question, as far as I can tell, there is no evidence of it being mounted. My mum has always had it sitting on the fatter end, in a little wooden plastic holder. So assuming it used to have some kind of seating, it wasn't mounted on to it - it just sat loose in it. All sides of it are carved, so there's not really any obvious place that it would sit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
