    Really did not know what forum to put this under? I bought this at an online estate sale. Wasn't sure if it was Vietnamese, African, Baltic? I thought it was all carved resin but my husband thought some might be amber? Any thoughts?

    In the 5th photo, the large element in the middle looks like cow hoof (think dog chews). What a bizarre thing.

    Good idea - let somebody else dust it.
