I found this brass obejct, but do not know what it is. It is about 10 1/4" tall from the top to the flange, and about 3 3/4" wide at top. It looks like it was made to be mounted on something.
You can probably find a match for it at one of your local cemetaries or mausoleums. It looks like a vase that's commonly mounted next to a headstone, usually screwed or epoxied into the concrete footing the headstone sits on. Hope this helps.
