Chinese ? Counter
hi all
help please in identifying this object
https:/ /s1043. photobu cket.co m/user/ sirlear ie/libr ary/?so rt=3&am p;page= 1
I hope the link works for the photo .
wooden block 3.5 x 2" with 8 tags (?) which click up or down
all inlaid with small different insects
I have 2 of these found in a gaming box containing mother of pearl tokens
so I assume these are also Chinese in origin
any idea as to name/function etc would be very helpful.... thanks .
