I think Rasputin had it right the first time as it looks like an escutcheon lock plate for a trunk. Interesting find, Breezie

Could well be, Breezie, but I am still trying to figure out the purpose of this screw hole in that application .. I keep stalling on that.

Folks this is a clock pendulum. That’s why it has the hole in the top, to suspend it. Cheers. Similar to this one.
