Prepare to scratch your head as you encounter objects so bizarre they defy explanation. This puzzling collection invites curiosity and speculation, challenging viewers to guess the purpose or origin of each item. Whether whimsical or downright perplexing, these finds remind us there’s always more to discover in the world.
What is it?: Definitely an old speaking tube. If your house is two stories tall it would have most likely came out by the front door so if a visitor came by and no one answered a knock they could pull the flap up and blow into it and it would whistle to hopefully get some ones attention.
What is it?: Smart bed legs, for trapping/detecting bed bugs that climb up them.
What is it?: Perfume bottles..And fancy ones at that..Nice find..
What is it?: Vintage school desk frame.
What is it?: It's a cranial cap. You put it under the head to absorb leaking brain goo.
What is it?: Mac tools telescopic pocket magnet.
What is it?: Bird rings for pigeons.
What is it?: Cannonball.
What is it?: Its an old pump from a well.
What is it?: It is called a glove box damper and it attaches to the glovebox door so that when you open the glovebox, it gently opens instead of just falling open. They might have taken it apart to change the cabin filter and didn’t reinstall it properly.
What is it?: It’s a lamp and it took me far too long to realise this is sitting on a desk and isn’t actually 7ft tall.
What is it?: Looks like air layering to propagate the trees (make new trees from healthy branches faster than starting from seed).
What is it?: Old CD rack.
What is it?: Matchstick holder in case u need to manually light the grill.
What is it?: Modeling accessory. People use them for dollhouses, stop action films, dioramas, etc. Those look 1-to-12 scale, so they'd look size appropriate with a 6 inch tall action figure.
What is it?: Water reservoir for tapwater or artificial snow.
What is it?: It's a butter bell. You put butter into the cup of the lid, put cool water in the outside cup and it keeps the butter cooler on the counter.
What is it?: Flat track motorcycle racing shoe. Goes over your boot and lets your inside foot drag around the sweeping corners and not catch or wear out your boot, probably from the 1960s.
What is it?: Removes fine dust and viruses from shoes installed at Seoul Forest subway station.
What is it?: Its a wafer iron. Works the same way as a waffle iron, just makes wafers (Krumkake) instead.
What is it?: It’s a crucifixion bottle, or god-in-a-bottle. Cool! And a bit creepy!
What is it?: It’s a dumpling maker. First letter looks like a Russian Ц. These were popular in the Soviet Union.
What is it?: Purple martin & gourd' nesting boxes. When the birds leave in the autumn to migrate south, it’s good to lower the nesting boxes and clean them out so they’re ready for next spring. It reduces illness when they have clean nesting boxes.
What is it?: It's for rope making. twisting three strands into a rope.
