    Hi everyone. Today I found two unique pieces. I was hoping to get some help IDing them. This piece is very heavy, it is 8 inches in all directions and about 10 inches tall. Looks like nickel over bronze or brass? I can't tell and I am not sure if this is embossed or carved or what, but there doesn't seem to be any symmetry like you would see in a molded mass produced piece. The images are interesting and seem to tell a story. I am hoping someone has experience with these.

      It will be all hand done - hammered - somewhere like Persia, India.
