      Appear to be plastic, possibly polyester/vinylester molding compound. Scratch the bottom of one piece and smell, the odor may be a clue.

      Thanks for your comment It’s definitely not plastic the bottom is like a white plaster of Paris as it looks chalk white

      I agree with you, most likely Plaster of Paris/ chalkware.
