a convex bottom, judged by the photo (is it so, Marloes?). So perhaps a
kind of mount or raw pieces for a handle etc., even with two of them attached
together around a cylindrical object (shift?), as the edges along the bottom are
flat.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Marloes.<BR>May it be raw material to cover chembalo claviature keys
or perhaps to make domino peaces. They were often made as a sandwich of
one layer of bone and one layer of ebony fastened together with a tiny
ravet.<BR><BR>//Sabine Sten<BR><BR>Marloes Rijkelijkhuizen skrev 2011-12-04
