[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4054039, member: 2844"]I have never seen a betel nut crusher that was made in faux native style before. I have also never seen a flat betel nut crusher before. Imo this is an export piece, made to cater for Western ideas of 'tribal' artifacts. A betel nut crusher looks like a chisel with a nicely carved handle. Betel cutters look like cutters. A few betel nut crushers from different regions.
