    a friend just text these pics to me and neither one of us can find anything similar. They are about the size of a normal head and she thinks made of copper. Any ideas? Thanks for your time. I hope I can get pics to post from my phone...

    The guy on the right looks to be wearing an Egyptian headdress. The left one looks like the cowardly lion! :hilarious:

    Thanks bakers!:cat:
    Has anyone seen anything similar to these? I can't find anything else like them. I've tried many different search terms with no luck. They are hollow with a little weight to them. No marks found. Thanks again.

    The one on the right has a deco feel to it and the left one looks like a variation of the Green man. I love them!

    Thanks so much johnnycb and galeriagila. So do you think they are both from the Art Deco era?
    She really wants to list them on eBay but doesn't know where to begin or how to describe them.
    Thanks again for everyone's help.

    What is that scratching just below the hole on the right. Could it be some type of makers mark?

    The features-graphics-look like 1970's or later to me. I couldn't tell the material of construction unless I had them in hand but I'm guessing some kind of composite.

    The Green Man and Pharaoh sounds right...but there is also a bit of resemblance to Henry VIII and Anne of Cleves. :)

    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    The scratching on the back below the hole looks like "chicken feet" and a wing...at least that's what's visible......to me....

    Thank you all so much, any and all ideas are greatly appreciated!:)
    The back is just scratches, not a mark.
