The art deco Storm King Theater is located in the village of Cornwall-on-Hudson and is named after the nearby Storm King Mountain. The building is now occupied by an outdoors shop and almost looks like it should belong on the other coast.

This beautiful but inscrutable metal decoration is one of many just like it that are attached at about eye level to the marble walls of the waiting room in Los Angles's Union Station.
My quick take on this is it's a stylized flower, perhaps a fleur de lis. Any other thoughts?
I wonder whether it was lacquered when it was installed to protect the finish from corrosion. If so, it worked!
If not, the conservator in me says it shoud have been allowed to develop a patina. By now it might have turned a lovely green.
Wikipedia says:
Union Station [1939] was partially designed by John Parkinson and Donald B. Parkinson (the Parkinsons) who had also designed Los Angeles City Hall and other landmark Los Angeles buildings. They were assisted by a group of supporting architects, including Jan van der Linden. The structure combines Dutch Colonial Revival architecture (the suggestion of the Dutch-born Jan von der Linden), Mission Revival, and Streamline Moderne style, with architectural details such as eight-pointed stars.

En parfumerieën. Kapsalon op de Leidsegracht in Amsterdam, een tijdcapsule uit de jaren vijftig. In de etalage portretten van onder meer een jonge Wim Sonnevelt, een jonge Ko van Dijk, Guus Verstraete sr. en nog een aantal coryfeeën uit de tijd van de zwartwit-tv en de stoomradio - allen keurig gekapt, dat spreekt vanzelf.
