<p>[QUOTE="AntiqueBytes, post: 3381918, member: 13195"]Not sure if the tourist did the carving of the text or if it was done for her on the spot by the artist. Any ideas? Seems like it might take some skill to be able to write on stone like that. It's 3" x 3" high. I have a similar item someone identifies as Kisii stone from Kenya, and this one even says Kenya on it. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]301113[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]301114[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]301115[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]301116[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]301117[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
