Butterfly

Found this butterfly brass piece. At first thought half a ladies buckle, however no attachment points. Not sure whether hole was made later and fashioned as pendant Any thoughts on this piece appreciated.

Is it broken, cut, or made that way? Very curious piece...

It might be missing something at area around the body of the butterfly, but the piece appear to be complete.
