Stumped..

[root]

I've posted this in the past with no results. I dug this in a t.o.c. dump here near Philly. Not sure of the composite type but feels like porcelain of bisque. Could it be related to something electrical?
Good luck,

Sort of reminds me of a mold/ cast, perhaps not the correct words here but ...

looks to me like one half of a mold, the hole being the pour point

There are a million ceramic molds in this city - these are but just a few of them.

I've been waiting since the last time you posted for an ID, since I have one too. I found mine deep in the woods where there never was any electrical lines.

Thanks LC. I wonder if this composite was made 100 plus years ago?

alumina ceramic seems to be fairly new. Used for spark insulators.
