✅ SOLVED Beautiful patina this piece has

[jimbonito58]

I found this piece 3 ft from a small stream , I did not clean it at all cause I thought it had such beauty possibly for use of apiece of art or something , it rang up as a screamer as I got close to it I could see the green color
At first I thought it might be something off a row boat cause it was mounted on a piece of wood ... any thought or Idea would be appreciated ... thanks so much Jim B .. got a feeling this one will be tuff ... I have no Idea .. take care Jim B

It would indeed make a beautiful art decoration.

Reminds me of the bottom pivot of an old swinging door?

It does look like the bottom pivot on an old oarlock.

Window lock ?

Part of anyway... AND part of the window as well.

 

[jimbonito58]

wow yeah it would seem like window lock definitely old ... that would be a petty beefy window lock ...esp where it was found by stream ... guess it could be an orr lock or swivel also ... then again you know how this hobby is haha thank you fellas
