<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MariaT, post: 1605910, member: 13901&quot;]Inherited these along with LOTS of other ceramic items from the 19th century.&nbsp; I recall be told that they were used to hold thin strips of wood or reeds (held in the tree trunks) that would be used&nbsp; to move a fire when the evening came.&nbsp; Something like that.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know if the age is contemporaneous with the children&#039;s clothing style, or if the figures are meant to be nostalgic.&nbsp; Any help in dating these would be great!!!!! Poor boy lost his head MANY years a go but I wouldn&#039;t touch the glue at this point. PS sorry that the pics seem to show up more than once.&nbsp; I only uploaded each one once, but I&#039;m doing something wrong.&nbsp; My apologies.[ATTACH=full]232474[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232475[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232476[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232477[/ATTACH]&nbsp;&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]232474[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232474[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232475[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232474[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232475[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232476[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232474[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232475[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232476[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232477[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
