Plastic stopper points at Oberglas Austria or Empoli.

Hi Paul, I'm not an expert but this really doesn't look Scandinavian to me. This is not a common shape in this part of the world. What are the motifs on the sides?
best wishes

Hi there.. I wasn't sure that it was Scandinavian just hoping really.. the figures on the four sides are all different
and appear quite primative they seem to be worshiping or praying I guess. I like the item I haven't seen one like it
before and it was a bargain at a local sale. Paul
