Do you know, or is this a genuine inquiry?

 

If that is a wood floor, looks to me that something fell off the wall and that was the rusted piece of metal by which the thing was hanging that broke off.

Stove lid lifter.  Try saying it rapidly three times in a row.

@LTT1 what is the writing at the top?  Where did you get it / find it?  Looks interesting to me!

The pointy side looks as though it fits in a hole and the device is used to turn something, a piece of equipment, part of a boat or some other object.

@sunshine45   Kind of hard to discern and a little before my time.Woman LOL  However, I'd have to assume it's an antique that's been through tough times, perhaps even a fire. ttherefore, probably missing a piece.  You can Google the image to see details of an original.
