Finial from a Fireplace Andiron, from a shipwreck sank in 1762

[Marie0424]

Hello all,

I recovered this while diving and just now managed to ID it thanks to another user on Treasure Net. Does anyone think this piece has any value? It came off of a wreck from 1762.

Thanks,

Man, just my opinion, but this looks way too small to be from an andiron.

Agree with vhs07, seems small for andiron. Maybe a wall sconce final? This one is a reproduction, but fashioned off an antique piece.
