Wierd piece huh? They're articulated, and he thrusts into the woman when you press the little lever on the base. Pretty old too, maybe late 19th early 20th? Anyone know anything about these things?

   Hey czechman, I see that you collect pottery, did you see that old blue vase I posted? I wonder if you recognize anything about it?

   Maybe yours is old but they are commonly made to day. I can't go into a gift shop here in St. Maarten without seeing one.

   I bet they do, a weird little oddity like this would be a popular gift I would bet. This one had hand-cut threads on the screws and a degree of verdigris and patina that indicate some age. I think I got $150 for it.

   Well I'm sure if you pushed that lever hard enough you could crack his nuts
   :P

   It very well could be a nutcracker though, but its hard to say. The space for the nut isn't very large, so I don't know. Already sold it though, so its too late
