    I thought maybe to clean out a vintage shaving kit or brushing off your shoes, but I don't have a clue and my searches haven't yielded anything...

    It's about 1.5" wide & 2" or so long (without the bristles out). DSCN8227.JPG DSCN8229.JPG DSCN8230.JPG

    The wire bristles are for suede, I think.
