I think this is an interesting question ... how to describe these objects. For myself, I'm interested in their origin (place and people), their age, their materials, their size. And possibly, some cases, how they work. I'm sure there will be other suggestions too.
good to see the back, so one knows for sure, which is top and which is bottom. They are exceptional, really beautiful and must be very rare. I have never seen this before. Love the granules. Are they gold, guilded or another material?
