My wife just came back from a trip to Zambia. She brought back a small bag
of seed pods she found attractive. (I know, I know, she shouldn't do
this.)

They are about 2-3 inches across, very hard, with several tear-shaped
lobes opened to expose the seeds inside.

What are they? Are they dangerous?

Thanks.
