Hello, I was curious if anyone knew what these stones were. They are stamped or punched hole designs around the edges. I have searched the internet big, and can not locate them anywhere.

These were a flea market find that caught my eyes and had to have :)

Thank you so much for any information~

Welcome to Tnet suze1 :hello:

My guess would be eskimo or inuit amulets.

*Hope I am doing this right in replying, thank you so much, I will check into it :)
 
hello Suze!! and welcome to Tnet from Tmodel!! on the highland rim of eastern tennessee, yes you are doing right by replaying. we need more photos other side and edges and at least one close up useing micro setting on camera, so the ones in the know will have more to look at so maybe you cane get a good ID. as Ironspike!! said they may be eskimo or inuit. but if they are i think they would be ivory not stone. as far as i can tell from these photos the color and texture are good for ivory! i am not one of the wise ones, i know just enought to get me in trouble!!!!!

Hi Terry!

Thank you so much. Now, the back sides of the animal figures are the same as the front sides.
looking at them, they feel and look like marble :) It just would be nice to see what I have found they are awesome!

I will try to get more photo's of them :icon_thumleft:
