Well the center medallion is "shao" symbol which is a popular decorative pattern widely used. When you put the other piece together, is the opposite side to the top pointy side, flat? If it is, it might have been a book holder. You know the thing you put at the end of a stack of books on the shelf to prevent them from flopping over.
