Hello everyone, I have been trying to figure out what these are, or belonged to. The bottoms are not alike. They seem to be cut off of something maybe a flag pole, or fence post? There heavy for a small piece they measure about 5″x5″ I have two of them. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Joseph Heinrichs started in 1897 in New York and later expanded to Paris and closed 30 years later. He furnished the very best hotels in N.Y.with his restaurant ware line. Exquisite pieces of Arts and Crafts movement design may reach top prices of $ 1.500. More common kitchen ware is rarely sold over US$ 250. This particular piece has completely lost its silver plate. Dating: first decades of 20th century,he has already expanded to Paris, i.e. later production. I would say $ 200 but if I had it I would keep it, $200 would not change your friend’s life.
I hope it helped,
Ivan
