Clasp cover on a trunk and later worn and then lost as a shoe tap and recently recovered at a colonial site by a relentless metal dectionist.  TnMtns |
Most people are born as hunters in one way or another. Does it not make sense that we gather as well. Enjoy the hunt and gather wisely.

You are holding them upside down...they are angel wings! you know, I remember seeing angel candleholders once, made out of metal, that had wings a lot like that. Could be a good guess actually. |

I still say furniture hardware or horse tack. Daryl BP, Perhaps it is a furniture decoration piece that was placed under a drawer knob and a small nail held it in place?  Good guess. -MM- |
