Kashmir Museum
In the open-air gallery of the S.P.S. Museum, Srinagar, Kashmir, there is a 85-cm stone slab with an engraving of a six-cornered star inside a circle, with a small circle in its center. Similar symbols are found in different parts of Kashmir.
See: Bleazby. G.B; List of Coins & Medals in the S.P.S. Museum, Srinagar, Kashmir, pp. 1-3
This 85-cm stone slab seems antique but I couldn't find its dating.

Old Steam Engine
Photo of two hexagrams on an Old Steam Engine is courtesy of Kaká who published it on Flickr. It was shot at the Port of Paranagua, Parana, Brazil. Mathieu Struck commented on Kaka’s page in Flickr"
Despite the star of david, Henschel und Sohn AG (see the HuS letters inside the star) are not a jewish manufacturer.
andriz commented:
Well, the use of the six cornered star is not unusual in Hessen (I am living in south of Hessen, Kassel is in the north of Hessen).
E.g. both beer breweries are using this kind of star - and they are definitely not Jewish.
