Left: Bronze casting from India, approx. 17 cm, although the motif raises the question of whether the turtle is being propelled with the long stick? At the same time, there is an astonishing similarity to metal castings from the Senufo (Mali). Right: artistically openwork sculpture made of brass, approx. 16 cm. The closure suggests that it was used as a money box.
