[QUOTE="RhiannonC, post: 4305683, member: 22859"]Hello again,I wasn't quite sure where to post this one. I have a rather odd item here that I would love to know more about, if any one does know anything, it would be greatly appreciated. What I do know, This has been with me for at least 30 years and before that, my parents got it at some auction in the 60's-70's in Texas. It's definitely some kind of feline skull with what looks like decorative brass attached to it. I speculate that it may have been a pipe holder. Or maybe for ink wells(in the eye part). The design on the brass looks to me like Indonesian or possibly India. So, does anyone know how old this could be? Where it might have come from? What it could have been used for? I shall attach photos. . . =-)[ATTACH=full]349382[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349383[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349384[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349385[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349386[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349387[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349388[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
