I know nothing about it other than someone said they believe it's French and from the early 1800's. It stands about 15-18" tall and weighs around 3 pounds. Made of copper and it is definitely handmade. There are no markings on it that Ive been able to find. Found in the Florida panhandle when it fell off a trailer loaded with scrap metal. I'm trying to get any details I can on it before I decide whether to keep it or sell it. Thanks
