It's not brass or copper, (The pic looks like it, but not)
It's not magnetic.
It's HEAVY
To hard for lead
Quarter for size
Stove, or Fireplace piece??

Maybe part of a mantel clock ? The metal looks similar to Ormolu (copper/zinc/tin) wich is then guilded with an amalgam of gold and mercury .

Maybe a piece of bronze inlay or plaque from furniture (1800s)

I've seen something similar as part of a mirror frame once.

Appears as if the upper part of the "cameo" is in it's original condition...if that's any help.
