I believe it may be a glass bottle top with the ground glass stopper part that seals the bottle broken off.
I have several large old apothecary bottles and the stoppers look like yours on the top only wider with a shorter stem. I think the tall slender ones (bottles) have stoppers that are like yours.

I did a google image search and found this eBay listing with what appears to be the exact glass topper to an ornate looking bottle. https://www.ebay.com/itm/285942294803
My first thought is yes, it looks like the stopper for a liqueur decanter (sherry, port, etc.), although that tip looks as if something got snapped off.
P.S. One other thought (maybe better than my first thought): the rough texture of the glass makes me wonder if it might be an industrial power-line insulator or a standoff of some kind...?
