    I found this and it looks super interesting and old.

    I have no idea what it is. Its extremely heavy. It has cherubs and designs carved into it and there are markings on the bottom. Possibly makers marks

    it looks pretty old to me but I’m not sure what it is

    there’s also a piece missing at the top

    I have no idea if this is a lamp a candle stick holder or something else. It stands about 18 inches tall

    if anybody can help me identify what this is I’d appreciate it thanks

    seems it was spraypainted once. church, or rather old cloister or abbey.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    It looks at least as old as 19th century. Maybe earlier?
