Chromed duck decoy heads?
Someone thought they were real, and shot a hole through each one  Jon.

There appears to be a stylized horse's head on each one (those vertical lines across the top are the horse's mane) but I have no idea what they are. Cane toppers is as good a guess as any.

Walking cane knob was the first thing that came to mind for me. They kinda look like a work in progress..like not completely finished. The hole?... Finger hole maybe? I see the horse heads too.

My token guess is something off a boat...looks like a place to tie a rope. And no, I can't explain a horse on a boat.

To me they look kind of link mounts to hold a bar that slides through the holes, like part of a luggage rack or something. |

I think thats what it will end up being. A towel bar with a quick detatch so it can be used for self defense...........

How about custom ends for a bit? I’m not a horse person but it could be a work in progress for a show horse. Something like in pic below?

I would use the threaded holes to mount them and run a dowel or tube through the center holes and make it a towel rack.

Could be a fancy side rail mount for a pickup truck or something, or big rig light bar, might explain the horse motif.

How big is the large hole? If it is 7/8" or 1", they could be risers for motorcycle handlebars.

Perhaps on a set of stable doors, a rope would go from side to side to tether the horse off in the open doors or 1/2 (top half) open doors.?
