Obelisk Found at Thrift Shop

[wargamer1972]

Bought this for $3 at a local thrift shop.

Great buy!

Very Chinese - always worth looking at the shelf of knick-knacks then.

I'm always looking for stuff like this... Chinese statues, Buddhas, Greek stuff... I never find any though. Nice find!

[The_Beast]

I'm so bad; I'd want two. 

Really, a great find; I do browse the knick-knacks every visit, but spend most time in the toy section. I assume folks take one look at me, and think 'old greybeard on the hunt for his grandchildren.' 

They can find their own goodies!

I might be totally off but I think that it's a signature stamp. One of the stores in our local mall, the same one that sold shuriken and nunchaku, used to sell them. You carve your signature character into the bottom and use it to sign documents.

Or use it for wargame terrain. Either way.

Thanks, fellow Beast!

I shall have to check out the local version, as soon as one again opens in the mall. They have a TERRIBLE life span.

Yes, that definitely looks like a signature stamp.
