    Hello all!
    We are the ones that purchased an architectural salvage business, and keep hitting things that we have no idea what they are...here's one that has us stumped:

    Probably for weather vanes.
    Please enlarge all photos always. :)

    hmmm....that's a thought!
    I did try to enlarge all photos, even deleted them, and reloaded. Edited my post, and showed large in my post...then it did ^^^^that. sigh.

    Tried again...that time it worked! Probably operator error :)

    OK. :)
    Make them 480x640 and you'll likely not have any more issues. :)

    I think King of Things would be correct about weather vanes.
    Arrow molds would not have the feathers as part of mold, they would have been added later --- and I think the shaft of the arrow would have been wood and the tip stone or flint.

    Yes, I agree. We've discovered boxes of arrow heads... I didn't think these were "Indian artifacts". I know very little about molds, I couldn't imagine what they were used for, now I'm assuming they were used to make decorative pieces?? This would be a very cool art piece. I just didn't know if it should retail at $10 or $1000
