    Richard Rohan died in 1956. These are ~3/16" thick, 3 5/8" long on the sloping face, 3 5/8 wide at the foot. The pair weigh 28 1/4 ounces. The black finish isn't paint or anything applied; it appears to be a finish treatment. I got them in Coburg, Oregon...roughly 30 years ago.

    I cannot find another pair like these, 'tho I've spent awhile in that search; WP is completely silent on his name; eBay has quite a few of his creations, but nothing at all similar. If these are as rare as they seem to be, they're probably fairly $$$...although there may not be many folks in that market sliver.

    If any of you have inspirations that will lead me further, I'll be most grateful...thanks for lookin'!

    It's Richard Rohac, not Rohan
