    IM TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT THE EXACT NAME FOR THIS PIEC E OF WOODEN PICTURE THAT IS SPIRAL CARVED AND SITS LIKE A PICTURE FRAME IS CALLED. IT HAS "CARTAGENA DE INDIAS COLOMBIA" ENGRAVED AT THE BOTTOM OF FRAME. IT HAS A PICTURE OF TWO BOATS THAT ARE CLOSE TO THE DOCS OR PORT THAT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS EITHER PAINTED OR GLUED ON THE WOOD. BUT HAS NO DATE, NO SIGNATURE OR ANYTHING. IF ANY BODY CAN HELP ME TO IDENTIFY THIS PIECE OF ART I WOULD APPRECIATE IT.

    Unsolved Mystery

    Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

      In that it is from a tourist site (tourist trap) I would suspect it is a souvenir that someone brought home from vacation. Things made for the tourist trade are difficult to trace unless it came from a major event like a worlds fair.

      can it also be used as a basket? that's what the spiral cut looks like to me.
