Title: Re: srange ladys Post by: Neil on December 30, 2009, 11:06:10 AM I like that Paul, but I confess I haven't got the foggiest what it was used for or how it was displayed as presumably both sides are meant to be looked at.
Curious item. I agree with your guess at the date of her clothing. Whats it made of - I am guessing copper/alloy. Thanks for posting it Neil Title: Re: srange ladys Post by: Roman (Ray) on December 30, 2009, 12:16:31 PM hi butty.
