This is called an 印材 (in-zai), and it is a material for seals used in Tenkoku (篆刻, seal carving) and Rakkan (落款, signature seals). • A dragon-like carving is on the top. This is called "Ryuchu" (龍鈕) and is a common design on 印材 (in-zai) in China and East Asia. The dragon symbolizes authority and good fortune. • Characters (names, pen names, etc.) are carved on the square part below to be used as a seal. • The material is often stone (such as Shoushan stone or Qingtian stone), but it can also be made of hard stones such as jade or agate. In other words, this is "a stone material for making a seal (Rakkan-in) to be stamped at the end of calligraphy or painting," and it is sometimes collected for viewing. Thank you for looking.
