This is an intricately carved two-toned wooden "wand" about 12' long. It appears that the wand has been carved from a single piece of wood.
The "top," larger end of the wand is cylindrical and contains 6 small white inlaid plastic disks. There are 4 evenly spaced disks of the same size and color inserted horizontally into the cylinder below the top. Descending the rod below below the top are 3 half-cylinders equally and loosely separated from each other. Below the half-cylinders the rod tapers to the "bottom," which is capped with a white plastic nipple. It is difficult to believe that the "wand" serves anything other than a decorative purpose, as, for example, an appendage to a piece of carved furniture. I cannot discern any mechanical or other purpose which might be served. It was purchased for a few cents in a bin at a Goodwill Industries store.
See the pictures in the attachments. CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME IDENTIFY THIS!!! Thank you.
