Eagle Finial

Nothing exciting.
Got him in a table deal real cheap but I like him..
I think someone called him a clock finial

What do y'all think he is and how old?

 

The fitting on the very bottom looks like a standard lamp part...................otherwise, I got nuttin..................

 

Newer type eagle on ball - was on the top of a weather vane. Patinaed to look old. You can look up on Ebay for those weather vanes and can order them NEW in shiny brass or WEATHERED with the copper patina.

 

..... or a flagpole finial.

 

Or a clock, looks pretty small for a weathervane.

Lamp finial. I have a few figures like ships and things. I can see this on a 1950s Colonial revival lamp
