The word means protected or guarded so I would assume it is a sort of a good luck piece. I have a much larger one carved in a coconut but without any markings.
it looks like a shaving brush to me - is the "hair" part soft bristles or solid? http://www.collectorsweekly.com/accessories/shaving-mugs-and-brushes
His "hair" is really stiff! I can't imagine shaving with it but it is really old. Thanks for the reply, I agree it does look like a shaving brush holder.
