Cast- Solid Other/Unknown Wire/Rod Hammered-Sheet Note: Most likely cast and then finished by some further hammering and/or rasping/grinding/polishing to shape. The surface is very irregular, which may result from casting. The cracks in the bends may be from stress corrosion cracking caused by stresses during forming
