Well , my 2 cent opinion goes like :
Looks like an item that was once common to see on desktops , esp. with 'boss' types , most frequently these mildly-disguised phallic do-dads were sold in pairs , &/or as components of a fully-furnished desktop .
Heavy enough for a person on the other side of the desk to maybe think about not sayin' anything that mighta gotten a person whacked with one or two , back in the day .
Nice heavy cast & machined 'formerly-macho feng shui-esque' item , katerina00 .
I'm only guessing , but perhaps 1920's-1930's .
