I picked this up see attachments] in a charity shop awhile back but don’t know what it is, could someone help me with a name or a link in english please. I was told it is a muslim prayer tree but can fine no reference anywhere to such a thing, which is probably a failure on my part. any help would be appreciated.
 
Thanks anyway planten. My knowledge of Islam is limited but from what I do know Iwould agree it seems to have a decorative rather than a religous role. thanks again
 
I would have to echo the Planten’s post. <— I rarely “echo” anything Planten posts… 😛

I do **not **believe it to be a islam/muslim piece, but simply a decorate piece.

I’ve been looking at it since you posted it and to me it looks more like “hindu” decorate piece… but hey… it’s what I see and how I think… 😛

I have no idea but it looks cool. Have you thought about taking it to or sending a picture to a antique dealer. Sorry thats the best I can do but it is really cool looking.
