Oh - it's a special waxrn cell made to contain a developing queen bee. It's
usually shaped like a peanut shell but more or less straight with a conical
tip. And it hangs down.

Copies of the Venus de Milo in bust form are popular. That's the first
thing I thought of.

I was going to say it looks like something one would attempt to sell on eBay,
like the madonna toast or something similar...

That's my thought, too. Just wondering if I was crazy or if anyone
else saw it, too. I see her bending her head down to the left, looking
at the baby in her arms.

Wendy if the peel feels like a peanut peel , it could be a regular
peanut that had to grow in the earth between some stones or any other
hard surface that didn`t give it space to grow ,,,,,, as to the image
,,,, it looks a bit like a Dolphin to me ,,,
