Description

There are not many sources that are reliable and give me much information on a piece like this. Through research, there is a strong correlation between an object that looks like this and metal door handles and "knockers". There was also evidence that this could be a drawer handle for a dresser of some sort. However, it is conclusively a handle of some kind. The research hints at the association of the French Victorian Era.

The link attached is not an exact match, but it is the closest thing available that is similar to the object in the lab.
