Architectural salvage, Measuring approximately 9 1/2” tall and 8 1/4” at base, this, I believe is an antique staircase newel post topper. It has an octagon base, neo classical Victorian carved pinecone, pineapple, artichoke ? finial. VERY COOL! Condition is good, as seen in photos. There is the typical wear from age and use, including the visible scratches, scrapes, chips and abrasions visible in photos. Look closely at the photos, as they are part of the description.
