    Interior ink residue. Tattoo bowls? One is wooden and the other looks to be ivory. About 1 " high x 1 wide DSC_0577 copy.png DSC_0575 copy.png .

    I could be wrong, but they look lathe-turned. Because of that I would think Asia or a European influenced part of the world.

    Maybe kumkum cups or pots from India or Pakistan? Kumkum is the term for pigmented powder.

    Could you show the bottoms please?

    Thank you for the extra photo. Yes, they are lathe-turned.
