Some guy wished to please me and offered me this thing, thinking it would be a musket rest.
I doubt it is something of the kind. Made of bronze, with some patina, could perhaps be dated XIX century. I will have to consider visiting a local church and ask someone there (the sexton?) if this could be the fork of a rest used to prop litters, when marching in processions. Anyone familiar with these devices? Could it be something else? Fernando . |
