Any ideas????

Hello all,
I dug this relic at a colonial era cellar hole. It has a leaf type pattern, it’s hollow and has a hole in the top. Sounds like a bell if you tap it with a metal object. Just wondering if anyone has found this type of relic before. Thanks for having a look. Apologies for the upside down photos!!!!

End of a chain pull for a lamp switch.

Unless it is over a foot long or 17 lbs.

Some size reference would help.

I was also thinking a part of a lamp. If the inside is not threaded, I would also say a pull chain. If it was threaded, I would say it looks like the part that keeps the shade on.

I'm thinking shade for a pole lamp. Small end goes down. Hard to tell which is top or bottom if you don't know what it is to stat with?

The dimensions and pics from the top down and from the bottom up would be helpful.
