Something very similar to this would have been part of something ancient (depending on your definition of ancient). This particular item can be purchased today.

>>Would it be made of another material in modern 'something'?

The item is also available made of 'modern' materials. I have a photo of one but it might be to much of a give away right now.

Not a tool. Nothing to do with a valve.
