Wow! Never found anything this weird. Does anyone have any of these at home? Are they for real?
11 Curious Items From the Past With Functions That Are Too Hard to Guess
It is wrong to assume that people of the past were less inventive than you and I are today. Their imagination was rich enough to create a variety of things, some of which were useful, and others were, well, quite strange.
For example, there was a reusable body cleaning pill, which was also inherited. There were car vases, a device for measuring applause volume, a pocket sundial, a toaster fork, and other quirky objects.
Bright Side has assembled a small collection of vintage accessories, the purpose of which modern people often struggle to figure out at first glance.

Comments
Number 2 is an amalgam capsule used in dentistry. That is not a pill, it is a piece of metal that helps in the agitation process
Number 12 is a "Champagne Twizzler" for removing bubbles from champagne not a cocktail pick.
I didn't even have to guess because you, a genius, spoiled it! ????
