Found this about a year ago and decided to try to ID it. It is thin sheet brass and the victim of a land clearing bulldozer that had pushed it into a dirt row where I found all three pieces together. There is a design of a single tubular flower in boquet on both sides of the horn. The horn has been slightly pushed flat and is in two pieces. The vase-like part is also two piece but it is still together as one piece. No doubt in my mind that this was all together as one item before the mechanical monster had it's way with it.
I thought it looked an awful lot like something you would see pertaining to gas heating, but the brass sheeting is too thin for that. The item was found in the SC Lowcountry in the deep woods with nothing else found around it save for a few 3 ringers about 50 yards away. Any ideas?
