    This solid heavy thing is 7" long x 5" tall and weight is almost 5 lbs.
    Is this a bookend or possibly something else?

    Does look like half of pair of bookends. Not uncommon.

    Yes I saw a lot of book ends. That's what we will call it for now.

    If you've just got the one, sell it as a Bronze Masonic doorstop ;)

    Will do that because I only have the one. It is pretty crudely cast, any guess on age?

    I'd guess 1930s-1940s. But... that's only a guess.

    It's just a flaw. But thanks for looking. Thanks Debora.
