French Antique Guessing Game
I saw this small circular wooden box and had to ask the dealer what it was. Inside the box was a smooth agate that had a tiny bowl-like center.
"Agate enhances mental function, improves concentration, enhances the perception and analytical abilities.
It is a soothing and calming gemstone that heals inner anger, anxiety and helps in the strengthening of relationships.
Physically, Agate addresses visual, digestive, and uterine functions." via wiki
The outer box and its lid were worn and oiled, that is why the wood is so dark, but it wasn't greasy.
My first clue, the dealer's stand, was so obvious that literally if it had been a snake it would have yelled out, "SERIOUSLY!"
Why this object jumped out at me is still a mystery that the brocante haunts, "Why to notice this and not that?"
Do you know what it is and or what it was used for?
