I can't stop touching it.

Found this guy at an 1800's site in Australia, all other finds there have been victorian.

I don't know what it is. It's not broken anywhere.
I love it, the detail, and patina look awesome.

I can't stop fiddling with it.
 
that is awesome... can you slide your finger through the back? could it be a crazy old ring? dunno

Deadly- looks like it was on a door somewhere, maybe... tried cleaning something similar recently with vinegar and salt, and wrecked it. Your piece is best left alone.

Thanks :)
It's too tight for a mans ring, and way too big and heavy for a woman's or kids ring

It just fits on my little finger.

Thanks Mr.T
Yeah I'm not going to clean him.

What do you guys think he resembles?
Victorian?
He's kind of an Asian beard going on.

Looks evil, are those horns I see in his head? Nice find. Bronze?

They do look like horns in that picture but I think it's his waves hair, it's different on both sides which is cool.

I think it's bronze, looks to have some silver plating on it.

I believe that it is the silver plate spout from a glass claret/wine decanter - figure of Baccus - Victorian

A candle holder? Or a decorative bit off the shaft of a walking stick?
