      Normally I wouldn't even respond but after being attacked by people that the site can't even track seems chicken to me, I've been here a while, you can see what I post, I've been wrong and I've been harsh but I do not hide .....guess what..........I will be wrong again, but I truly want to know what this is if it is not a prayer wheel.

      Hey folks!!! no fight here!!! I was just wanting to know if anyone has seen anything like it.I am a collector of oddities and stuff I hope this kind of talk dosent go on all the time here or I wont post anymore of my unique treasures here. Pops I have done some on line reserch on this type of enamel artwork and have found a copper vase and small hanging lantern on another site capitolantiques.com but nowhere near the quality of mine and not as colorful or ornate. I am pretty confident it came from Syria around late 18th/ early 19th century. so lets fight nice folks.
