Anyone have any ideas? The featureless copper is there for a size reference.


Thanks for looking!

It looks like the remains of an antique drawer pull... or drawer handle.

I agree with Montana Jim. Here is what it probably looked like before it broke (see Paintshop'd picture below)...

Keith,
I guess that wouldn't be a nose ring for a bull, could it? Just a thought...... I guess if it was, it would be called... bull bling
Let's plan a hunt! ?!?!
