Very similar! Mine are 20" long each, and each has two holes on top and two holes on bottom--- in other words the top and bottom strings are not...
Me neither. Looks like palm fiber: so that narrows it down to about a million places. :rolleyes:
Yes-- very similar! I will look more closely and take some more pics later...
Yes-- they are much lighter than the glass and metal ones, so probably aren't weights. They each have two tassels, so maybe we're intended to be...

...And my favorite of them all, a big 11" Shipibo pot that also looks solidly vintage to me. It's the thinnest piece of Shipibo pottery I've ever...
