I bought this lil hand carved wooden box with and elephant on it. Inside it has these small elephants all ranging inside. seems to have been made from some stone. They seem to have like little bundles of stuff on their back..kinda looks like a a triangle on their back. Then in a small compartment there is like this small scale and a stick that lets you prop it up right on it..can someone tell me where or when its from? I have been looking and can not find it anywhere??
I have a picture just email if interested!
ummm i am not sure. it is hard for me to picture what you are describing.
but here are some pictures of old opium scales, perhaps you could compare what you have to these pics.
