    The item is mainly made of wood, it is Victorian as far as I know, it does have a use & you would use it in a specific way..... Here it is again.. :wink:

    This has really had me puzzled ... hence no guess as I see there's more to it to the left ...

    However, is it a bellows?
    Flower press?
    Butter churn?

    Our Pal would have it in a flash .... :hehe:

    :wink::lollol: I was thinking Pal might have got this one too because of all his little treasures.....:lollol:

    :( Pal is poorly at present....:(

    :wink: Yes there is a bit more to it as you say.. That is a close up shot.. It is a small item that would fit in your pocket easily....:)

    :wink: So, afraid it is, no, no & no Vicky...:)

    Goodness, I don't think I can make an educated guess now ... pocket sized?

    A measure of sorts?
    A cutting instrument?

    Every time I look at it I think of slices of bread or pork ..... :dh::lollol:
