My ex girlfriend gave these while in Norway over Christmas 5 years ago. I recently found them again, and can’t for the life of me remember what they are actually for. Can anyone help?

they are moulded in the shape of a viking boat prow… or the common image of one. not sure of the function but… candle/tea light holder maybe?
I’m guessing doorstopper
Testicle-holders. One for each.
I am not sure, but in the 60s and 70s it was popular with salt containers made by tin. I think these figures actually are salt spoons for a salt container formed as a Viking ship.
You can find one [here](https://www.flaaronning.com/products/vikingskip-m-saltskje-tinn-per?gclid=CjwKCAiAnO2MBhApEiwA8q0HYRrLua7ksHcRoWGFJ8Qj5jTZc4VnV5YKM-EqfEdf8Zsc6oBy_avKKRoC4EAQAvD_BwE) though it doesn’t show the whole spoon.

The spoons took different shapes and without being 100%, I think you own such spoons from at salt container made of tin, for tourist purposes.
Totally digging the ikea reindeer
It’s the Norwegian take on Three Seashells. One’s missing.
It’s for table salt, when you set a table, these should be within reach for the guests on the table.
I believe those are old salt spoons
Looks like candle holders to me
Its salt and pepper spoons
