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.

Hello,
Im trying to help my dad ID this silver decorative pot that my dad had picked up a while ago. He was told it was an “Antique Chinese Samovar” but there are other pieces that make him believe differently. Here are the reasons:
1.) The “pumpkin” design?
2.) The pump mechanism
3.) The narrow nozzle on the spout
4.) It appears that it may fit on top of another device
There are no markings as far as he can tell. But, if anyone can help give us some background on this piece or help with identifying it, it would be truly appreciated 🙂
Thanks,
Philip
