Looks to be two Curtiss R4 propellers turned in to a stand.
With a 10” early brass Chelsea clock. Age unknown. Beautiful work.

It looks as if the blades were connected with dowels through the hub and then it was turned as a bowl. I wonder how they did that, because usually the base of the bowl is used to secure it to a face plate with screws then that piece (with drill holes) is sacrificed after the bowl itself is completed. -
Thank you for showing us. It is quite the most astonishing use of old propellers that I have seen. Superb workmanship.

My advice is keep it. It is unique and beautiful. If you sell it, all you'll get is a few dollars. And if you keep it, you can always sell it in the future. But don't sell it now. Enjoy it!
