Hi All
I just purchased this at auction
one picture only so i put in a low bid and got it
I am guessing Morocco,
Looks to have some nice simple well executed decoration
13 inch or 33 cm long
any and all comments welcome

Hi Ken,
My pick would also be Morocco. Those heart shaped decos remind me of something to do with Islamic culture/beliefs. Perhaps someone else can elaborate.
