Found this in a field where I have found a lot of early 1900s artifacts. No clue what it is. Maybe an emblem that went on a tractor??? Looks like there is some writing on the back. I believe the first two letters to be NA. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Patrick

Looks like a broken early vic. "eastlake design" door, lock plate or hinge ?? or window hardware piece of the late 19th century.

It looks to me like a piece of an oil lamp holder, the part that screwed to the wall.

I don't know what it is but the styling, to my eye, is Art Deco - 1920's to just after WWII.

I concur with tamrock that it is a piece of eastlake design hardware

Is the piece broken on the bottom?

I broke one of those lamp brackets by tightening the screw too much, it broke almost identical

Yes it appears to be broken. Need to see if I can find the rest. Field is over grown right now so might have to wait until the fall.
