Description :(Scroll down to see enlarged views) Rare find! Haunting old fortune teller's divination pouch, with extra front pocket and metal object attached. Upon examination, an expert has told me this is a very old burial bag and worth around $500 as a rare historical find. It has 17 hand made rune like round clay stones, I assume would have been used like tea leaves to tell fortunes after thrown and formed various designs. The pouch looks to be made of something like jute or some plant fiber, and is 5" x 5" with a 27" long strap. I was told this pouch came from a couple that traveled Guatamala, Central and South America years ago collecting all kinds of occult and fortune tellers' objects. It is really intriguing and has that special haunted feel to it!
