The Portugal-based seller on eBay describes it thusly:

A fantastic carved wood fireplace decoration after an original design by Thomas Hope. The Greek youth Antinous.

It dates from the early 19th Century, circa 1820. I think the actual carving of the head is lime wood although the most of the bracket is pine.
