Found these gems at a local shop. They are quite heavy and about 30 inches in length. I assume that they were used at an entryway to a building or as garden statuary.

wow! wonderful!! from the 1920s or an earlier Egyptian Revival period?
Interesting indeed. Surely they would be based on an original item. The hieroglyphics look realistic. Tantalising !!!
Just wondering if the hieroglyphs goal around the base or are they only on one side ???
ho2cultcha,
I am a 1920s fanatic as well as an Egyptian fanatic, so I could not resist.
keramikos,
That is how I pictured them in their original location. I know the guy who placed these in the shop, so I'll ask if he has any other info. If he does, I will post here.
Thank you!
vetraio50,
I believe that the hieroglyphs are just on the one side. The pieces are currently at the house that I am moving into shortly. I will check again.
Thanks!
keramikos,
