Any ideas? Bell? Candy jar top?

The knob you lift it by is brass and has a hole going through it. The rest is iron. It has some signs of once being painted green. Any ideas?

Looks like an old bell.

Bicycle bell?

The finial on the top looks like it has a hole in it for hanging. That being the case, and given its apparent size, my guessis that it is the top to a weight shell for a clock.
