If it is a working piece, what would its purpose be?

The name is spelled differently.  It's hard to see in the picture, but its spelled "Galanopolus".  The road name is the same though…

The brass (if it even is brass) piece is 6.5" long and 3.75" wide at the widest part.  Doesn't that seem huge for a normal harness ornament?

Interesting… Do you think it has any value?

Hi,

My family recently inherited an antique barn.  We are having a blast going through everything.  I found what looks like a harness decoration, but I have never seen one this shape.  Can anyone give me more information?

Did you ever figure out what this was?  I found what seems to be the same thing
