Antique hand-carved Cattle Hoof order "slippers"

Likely from the late 1800s to early 1900s these cattle hoof, hand carved "slippers" are perhaps the oddest item we have ever come across. Certainly a conversation order starter. One of the "slippers" does have slight damage as shown in the pictures.

4-3/4" by 2"

The fine print:
Item is in used-vintage condition as noted and/or shown. Photos represent condition as accurately as possible, shot in natural light and free of retouching. My items are salvaged from various estate sales, so they are in as-is condition. I'm not an expert antique dealer, so I try to represent the item to the best of my knowledge. I look for items that have charm and range in aesthetic from rustic to refined. If you have any additional questions about the item's condition or need any information, please message me before buying. Thanks!
