Unknown Instrument
 
4 Attachment(s)
I recently purchased a lot with these items in it,I'm guessing that they are some type of instrument to strike a gong, etc. They measure approx. 9" long and the heads are solid;I.m not sure if they are resin or some type of nut.
All comments would be appreciated about their origin and function.

Yes, they are tabuh, used to strike a large gong, these look Javanese, quite similar to my own, but I guess they could be from anywhere that people strike gongs.
