  1. Very pretty; but from the size of the bases, I suspect that they are spear points instead.

    Thanks for the post.

  2. You gotta wonder, using the tools of the day, is there anyone on this planet capable of making something like that?

    1. Yes...If you're asking if the craftsmen of the 1400s could make the pictured pieces. They were more than capable.

      Also, yes- there are a lot of craftsmen today who study & thrive on making items like the ones pictured using the exact methods & tools they did in the 1400s.

      If you're alluding to extraterrestrials/ aliens making something like that, I have no idea.
