SWAGBAG: Is this unusual seed pod yours?
THE Herald Express weekly Swagbag feature is helping police to reunite members of the public with stolen items.
Detectives would like to hear from members of the public who recognise these items, seized in a search at a Torquay flat by the South Devon pro-active team.
One item is an unusual-shaped Caribbean seed pod (pictured), which has been hollowed out and converted into a hinged box.
Another is a nautical display with mariners' knots.

“This is the seed pod of the Coco de Mer - a palm found in the seychelles and used in chinese medicine. It' also the name of a lingerie manufacturer - and looking at it - you can see why.
There is one on display at the Eden project.”

“Picture? Or are we supposed to view this item with some remote clairvoyant power?”
