<p>[QUOTE="gimbler-dave, post: 310575, member: 313"]This was gifted to me a few years ago, and I thought I had researched it. Now, I can't find another like it. There is a mark on the underside that looks like L78. The bottom is solid, the top is pierced but the design is asymmetric, the overall look is like a walnut! I thought at first it was porcelain, but when I look at the wear on the feet, the underlying material looks like metal (but it is not attracted to a magnet). I'm guessing something like a nut or candy dish, or possibly an ashtray for cigars. What is this crazy thing (and who made it)? ...
