The one in middle seems to be holding something pointed to the air.one to left has hands in praying position and one to the right has arms folded it is hard to see but they have wings and halos

Cant imagine a high quality piece...those hinge points are not great in my opinion.Just a guess on my part though.

Yeah it looks like it was put together in the woods lol

I think these are supposed to be the three archangels Gabriel, Michael and Raphael

I agree with yaxthri - interpretive images of the archangels. Similar to "The Feast of the Holy Archangels".

Possibly a rosary box. I think it is "made to look old" - like a tourist piece from the Holy land. But I'm just guessing...

Ok I'm not Catholic and I know most scripts make angels look like boys but they look like women and I can't imagine any one depicting Michael the arch Angel as a women outside of Hollywood.
