While we're playing these games, who can identify this item?

Bonus points if you can identify the country of origin.

Whatever it is, it looks expensive...

Is it Scandinavian?

Reminds me of a ball bearing or a compass. Are we going to get any help with this?

First question: What is a "Boule"?

Second question: Depends on what you mean by "available." You're getting warmer, I suppose.
