Hey found this piece at a house built 1885, but don't know what it is, any ideas on what it is and approximate age would be much appreciated, thanks!

It is part of a belt, I'll get you a pic in a few.

Don't know the size or weight of the square piece, though it sure looks like the base of fireplace tool holder.

Plate from food heating light ? Lamp ? Lantern ?

Here are a few similarly designed belt buckles, to bad the emblemin that was on the face on yours is missing:

The double ended blue arrows point to the first likenesses that made me think buckle. The green circle is where I think an emblem may have been affixed. What does the lettering say that I have circled in yellow?

 

[IndianaHunter27]

Wow thanks Ant I think you got it! Sorry it won't let me look at the links tho, but one inscription says "GLORAY" and the second "LB.Cc."

 

[IndianaHunter27]

Yes I have researched it and GLORAY was indeed a maker of belts back in the day, thanks!

 

[Ant]

Thanks, sorry I was having difficulties editing that post, the pics should show now.

 

[IndianaHunter27]

Yes now they show, thanks for the help I appreciate it,
