I am not sure how to even look this odd thing up. It rings like brass. It is rather heavy. It looks like it has a handle at the top with holes in it..No clue what it might have been used for…Near an old farm in New England.Thanks for your ideas!

If I had to guess which I am. I would say a drop pull for opening something up. Nice finds.

Maybe try and Google Antique toilet chain pull, it kind of resembles some in the pictures of them.

see the notch in the round part? I believe that notch is the stopping point on a latch , to what I'd guess maybe a stove or icebox door?

I myself am not sure even. The toilet chain handle and clock weight are very good guesses . Nice finds On my horses i use 8 nails not six., They stay on a lot longer with 8 nails. Thanks for sharing

Thanks! The main part feels like a handle but the top part looked like it may have had a cable or rope or some moving part..Thanks for your idea!
