    hi e1!
    Happy weekend. Yes!!! Finally here although the week went rather fast. Hoping e1 is well

    these guys are puzzling. They kinda feel handmade and possibly clay or... each lizard and fancy scrollwork appear to be done individually as they all show variations or slight differences. They are giving me a touristy, south or Central American vibe but WTHDIK? Just wondering what your opinion is

    Thank you for any help

    I agree, Central or S. American. Gecko/ salamander icon, but i can't find any comps.

    @gauntlettgems , my first thought was the Philippines. I have tried the roast Python, but not the lizard dish, though it probably tastes better than the Python as it is Adobo......lol. My wife has eaten it , her Dad used to hunt them up in the mountains..... At one time they ate Bat .... Uh, no thank you .... Rabies, COVID....Yech! One must eat what one needs to survive I guess ... I still will not eat dried fish .... the smell....ack!
