[QUOTE="ascot, post: 9573379, member: 96"]Picked these up today. I'm not even sure what they're made from - quite heavy, so I think maybe iron or terracotta that's been painted black? One has a male figure on the front within a snowflake-like raised cartouche; his female "companion"? is on the other side. The other has the female within the cartouche on the front and the male on the back. Both pieces are marked - looks like WS&S - not sure about the ampersand. One has 298 beneath and the other, 299. I'm hoping the marks are a clue.
