It looks like a handle off a water dipper or a pan.

I believe it to be a leg for a small box or chest. Should be three more, keep looking.

Re: I found this on my last outing, but what is it?
I think the leg of a heater is a good call, but to me it doesn't seem to line up properly with the unit and the floor
It looks as though the foot portion will would be above the floor due to the curvature

Definitely brass.
Something similar, but it is made of brass. I guess there may be brass kerosene heaters.
It would rest with the curve as the foot.

Neil, if your quarter is photographed in scale we are only talking about something four or five inches tall, correct? I agree completely that it is a leg, and it may very well be off an early heater. Considering it is brass and fairly light weight I'd tend to look towards cheaper victorian or later elevated fireplace screens also, which would often have brass legs, and be light weight. Another better possibility considering its very light weight, might be the leg off an antique chafing dish.
