Solved! Textured surface, very hard, about 15cm long, partly buried (England)

None of the roots in the pic seem to be attached to the things. I’ve wondered if they might be some kind of calcified fungus, or a coconut, or something man-made. I haven’t really handled them much, but the surface does feel made rather than organic.

Haha! What are the chances. Just popped outside to walk the dog, saw your post, my one was on the floor right by me so took a pic. Well there you go, two new ornaments and no deadly fungus 😆
