got this from my gramps
all i know is he said he found it a long time ago while diving
no clue where
not sure if the top was broke when he found it or after
he glued a few pieces back on but not sure where the rest is

i know this is a long shot but anyone have a clue on
what its made of?
how old it could be?
where it might have come from?

wow thats pretty sick is that made of marble?
 
I have no clue. But does almost look like marble. And the first few pics remind me of something from asia. But I'm far from a art collector and don't watch "Antiques Roadshow" alot.. lol
 
not sure but seems too have too many minerales in it to be marble. but i aint no rockhound. almost looks to me like a polished granite. just by the colors. probably not but the color looks like it.heck for all i know it could be some exotic wood!
