Re: A hood ornament?

I'm pretty sure the brass item is a reign guide for a wagon. It also might be an oar guide for a boat.

Better late than never, thank you for sharing your thoughts, I always respond to everyone who replies to my post and some how this one got lost in the dust!
That is a cooler find than I thought if it is either of those two things!

Like I just said in my previous post, "Better late than never, thank you for sharing your thoughts, I always respond to everyone who replies to my post and some how this one got lost in the dust"!

I thank you for your answer and I love picture related answers! I am a visual person and it helps me a lot to see a picture. Thank you again and again I apologize for never looking at the replies to this post!

Cindy, to help you visualize what a reinguide/terret is and "does," here's a photo showing what you found, still in use today.
