It's an early Roman cigar-holder ;)

OK I know the Romans didn't have tobacco!

It's a candle-holder designed to be fixed to the wall (ie. you rotate the picture 90% counter-clockwise).

Where is everyone? Too hot?

Doesn't really hold anything internally.

<added>Well maybe it does, but if so, it just facilitates the use</added>

Are they antique, or still something that might still be in production?

Not a pen holder.

Definitely mentionable. Another pic [images10.fotki.com] in honor of the founder of the gizmo quiz.

Next clue:

Basic name no doubt derived from answer to first two clues. Specific name describes its primary purpose.

Hey lawman!

Thanks for replacing me. I just arrived (in one piece). The shoot was great with no major incindent.

I am glad you revived the tradition of funny pics along the way. iamlost did a great job last week.

Could your gizmo be a vintage wall mounted curling iron holder [pages.tias.com]?

So the proper name would be a goffering iron stand [gtj.org.uk]?

Lawman, is he [szmata.com] a good prospect?

Since the goffering iron only works when you stick a hot poker in it, the stand helps keep your dainty fingers from being burned. :)

If you see that guy on the motorcycle again, give him my card. ;)

So I guess I need to host the next game?

I do another shoot for Canada day next friday. But I am not the chief supervisor this time. My presence is not required for the next day disposal. We will wrap the harware just after the shoot. I will host the next game next saturday PM, if I dont blow myself up again. ;)

Thanks again, lawman [crazy-jokes.com]. :)
