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.

I picked up this saddle stirrup at an estate sale. I believe it’s made of either brass or bronze. It measures about 6″ across the bottom, is about 6 1/2″ tall, and weighs about 3 1/2 pounds. It has what I believe are dragons across the top. Anyone know anything about it? Anyone know how to tell brass from bronze?
Thanks!
