Kia ora,
I do enjoy trying to help other T'netters identify their finds. It is always a good buzz, when I actually help ID anything. If you feel the same as me, well here's your chance to feel Groovy Baby

What the heck is this?
(I know it's bamboo, bits are brass; and tiny little feathers)





I bought it out of curiosity and the trader had no idea of its use either.

Edit before anyone else comments, I know it's a beanie and My Lucky Dime (for scale purposes). What remains is the mystery.

Probably a pipe cleaner set. (As in smoking pipe.)

Earpick, cleaning equipment for ears.

Sort of what I figured it would be. What is the purpose of the feathery thing though?

Can you provide a link to your information, please?

The scoop end gave it away as an earpick, the picture was taken off Google images for earpicks. I've seen different types of cleaning picks but never one with a fluffy end, it could be for the same purpose but with water applied to the end for washing the inside ear lobe.

I appreciate that, Thanks mate.
