a razor.
jk. You mean besides the windmill?
Well, it's probably a Dutch motif being a windmill.
it seems like Church ?
i am not sure that is why asking >
It looks like that to me, as well.... an Eastern Orthodox chapel, with a graveyard in front and an Eastern aureole from behind the cross of the church...Quote:

I think you guys are reading too much into it. It is a windmill.Quote:

Those are way too short to be trees. They are shrubberies.Quote:

I think it's a mindmill..Some windmills may have crosses on them?
I have a couple of these. Its a wind mill with a bost and oar in the front of it. Also you can see the water
No no no! It's ups, downs, and electrons. Unless you can actually prove its strings...Quote:

It's dirty and needs honed.

Do yourself a favor and do like Ron did, get out before its too late to save yourself!
:HJ Haha. I thought shrubberies. Just missing the grail shaped beacon in the window or it could be Castle Anthrax.Quote:

I think specifically it's the windmill burnt down at the end of Frankenstein.
And as for the electron theory, we cannot know their position or their momentum at the same time, and this razor clearly has no momentum...logically we have no idea where it is and this entire thread is pointless :)
Just thought I'd add to the confusion :beer1:
We actually have no idea what the momentum is but we definitely know what the position is. Think high speed photo of a bullet.Quote:

Schrodinger's cat applies to unobserved variables, so that doesn't really work here. But now we are WAY off topic, so back to the razor.
I thought it was a church re-fitted with a windmill.
I think it is the product of some artist letting his imagination run away with him. It is obviously intended as a coastal windmill - plenty of those about. The base of the mill has some sort of oriental influence and what is clearly the sea in front of it has what looks like boats and oars as has been said by someone already. The stuff at the bottom and up the side looks like an attempt at an oriental-style foaming surf.
Although there are windmills that are used as churches (at least three in the UK and I know of one on the continent) not a single one of them has a cross on the top, so I reckon that is some fanciful notion too.
That is a poor excuse for a shrubbery - it appeases me not! What it needs is another shrubbery placed beside it, only slightly higher, so we get a two-level effect with a little path running down the middle....Quote:

To the beginning of the thread.
There were three pattern of windmill razor handles.
Most are molded of ivory colored celluloid, sometimes with grain lines similar to real ivory.
Such handles were popular around the turn of the 20th century. The 1902 Witte Hardware Co. catalog shows an assortment of fancy celluloid styles. Two windmill patterns are included, both the rowboat style in ivory color and sailboat style in black celluloid.
The most rare and difficult to find is the middle razor with W.H.Morley and Sons blade.

Another razor of this style is marked on the shank "55S Sheffield Steel E, Made in Germany." The reverse side reads, "The Admirals".
