Hi Lew. I'm thinking it's more likely an early to mid-19th century hanger based on the straight plain quillons and lack of a shell guard. By no means did all hangers of the 18th have said guards, but all of the details of this piece say later to me. Likewise, the brass doesn't have a ton of patina. My 2 cents...
