Looks like decorative handle and a utility knife (utility knife is a pig castrator). Very interesting glass


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

Antique lamp finial for holding the shade on top of a lamp. Some folks collect them.

Fancy pig castrator grin


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

It's called a ' finial ' top of lamp to hold lampshade to hoop.

Nice looking one , some can get mildly spendy , $25 and up.

I never saw a finial with the end closed with a screw.
With the screw in the end, I sorta think its a fancy drawer knob. Maybe for a jewelry box?
