<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ghopper1924, post: 4593832, member: 5170&quot;]An ornamental “head,” often called a Brittania, Athena, or Jenny Lind. Don’t know if anyone has ever offered a definitive explanation. I’d guess 1870s or 80s. It was probably attached to an etagere or even an elaborate clock case in the upper center. They were often made by an independent manufacturer and bought in quantity, then attached to furniture. Looks to be walnut with gilt trim. Very nice![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
