just guessing, 1940s/50s home decor ?
the loop part looks like it might have attached to something
else ,maybe something that hung on the wall

 

[ROBERTDRIGGERS]

the petals are about 1/8 inch thick and it looks like it broke off of something. it weights about 1lb and a half easy....

 

[cw0909]

that weight maybe part of some garden decor

Maybe a decorative piece off of a cemetery urn or flower pot?

 

[ROBERTDRIGGERS]

that's what i was thinking!

Is there a grave yard nearby?

I though the same thing when I saw them.

 

[ROBERTDRIGGERS]

not that i'm aware, but the area has a lot of early Texas Settlers history. no telling how many family grave sites have been plowed over...

 

[Carolina Tom]

The more I look at it the less likely I believe that it is a grave decoration.

Wall sconce, part of a floor lamp/ chandelier or wall decoration

I have a floor lamp that has embellishments very much like yours.
It has a twisted brass pole with those type decorations on the pole. I think it's 1930's
