For answers to the Mystery grouping posted last week, check out the previous entry to this one.
Presenting: a repeat passel of puzzling parts to peruse and postulate upon.
#8: Approx. 1" (3cm)
#9: Approx. 5" (12cm)
#10: Approx. 3" (7.5cm)
#11: Approx. 3" (7.5cm)
#12: Approx. 8" (20cm)
#13: Approx. 2" (4.5cm)
#14: Approx. 2" (4.5cm)
Perhaps a slightly easier grouping than last week... I know a few will be easy to work out. But lovely objects all anyway. Enjoy, and let the guessing/researching/dreaming/puzzling begin.

ReplyDelete#8. This could certainly be some sort of dried natural formation--barnacles? sponge? coral polyps? (but then I don't know coral atoll...). I'm going to guess, however, that its more likely a handmade present from your twins that's been lost among the tools on your workbench--a dirty, crusty Rice Krispy treat??
#9. A sad little metal moose, clearly petrified...
#10. Almost certainly a commemorative corkscrew--but who drank the bottles of Cliquot from the gift set?? Sigh...
#11. Petrified tubifex (sludge worm), very angry about his condition (tubivexed).
#12. Training bra for a little metal doll... An iron maiden for the iron maiden??
#13. Petrified guck on purified water bottle cap, now putrefied.
#14. Gilded operculum (front door) of an enormous Australian snail? Nah. It's one of a set, I hope, of metal pasties used by the aforementioned little doll after she'd consumed waaaay too much champagne (of all the veuve!)...
Come on Keith Put us out od our misery LOL
