Hi Doc,

Could this be the end off an old walking stick or riding crop? It's 20mm X 15mm and hollow. Looks like it might be gilt over silver or something. The engraving is very crude though, don't know if its a sign of its age or just bad craftsmanship...

I think it too ornate for a riding crop/cane but I will wait to see what other members say.

With those measurements it was probably the top off a perfume bottle.

Very nice find. Much better than tractor parts. Roll Eyes

Possibly something like this one.  Note the hole in the top for a 'dabber'.
