She only paid $5 for all...... But we would like to know about them...... any info/help would be appreciated.
Al,
I'd say that's bamboo you're a lookin at. Not good for carvin - probably why you didn't recognize it. :wink:
Seriously, though, they do look nice.
Uhhhhhh............ I meant I could not press 1 for English....... so I cant identify the makers mark....
But thaanks for the tip.........
See that Chinese mark in your second picture?
Translation: Made in China :laf:
