1. SIZE

2. A Photo of the Back.


It might be a bridle rosette if it is 2 inches in diameter... If it is 2 feet in diameter then it probably is not a bridle rosette. :P

yep need to see that back. But it does look like it could be a rosette. That type of star is fairly common on colonial period items from England. I'm attaching a pic of a colonial harness boss I dug about a year ago.
