unknown, Something !
I recently got a group lot and this was an unknown passenger. It measures 54" tall and my best guess is that it is a torch of some kind or a huge bong. Maybe for burning sage to cleanse an area?
Any guess would be helpful! |

Interesting piece indeed. Not a clue as to what it is but if you could find someone to translate the Mandarin/Cantonese it might reveal it's use.

Thanks, JeffS, that certainly is the item.I must be missing a part or 2, because I don't have any moving parts to pump water,etc..Possibly a nozzle?

Interesting. Used with a bucket of water or something?
Suck water up, spray it out then repeat as necessary, like a bicycle pump? . |
