any ideas?

i found these two things in the same hole yesterday! they don't seem to fit together very well though

i know it's probably one piece and from furniture! but why in two pieces that don't fit together properly?

thanks!

Interesting piece. How big is it?

I would guess that it's a mold of sorts

Kinda resemble cast iron stove legs. Jimbob

sorry, its 35mm in length!

Is it bronze/copper? The fact the two pieces don't seem to be a perfect match is making me think this relic is of older time period (medieval/roman). What's your feel on age of the piece?

Could be a leg/handle tip of sorts, but don't see how the pieces would have been attached. Opening at both end of the piece also somewhat unusual for the mold idea.

i think it's brass and probably no older than georgian as i have never found anything older in my area!

i just don't know why it would be in two pieces, and what held them together

Georgian period is still old in my

Make some cookies or chocolate tops with the mold for snacks for your next hunt with Crusader and see what he thinks

I agree the attachment method is puzzling

I have to be careful where I invite him with his new weapon of choice, I know how deadly it is. He also hunts like my Dad, plods along with a few OK/average finds, but over times stores up the points in readyness for something outstanding. He must be due one of these special moments, so I will keep him at arms length.

no idea on the drawer knob thing
