    No idea what this is, weather it's old or not old or in the middle. So any and all info is appreciated.

    When I was a kid (ca. early to mid-1960's) my sisters & I had bead looms like the one shown below. We used to make things that looked like the piece you've shown here. (You could buy the beads at the hobby store - they came in glass tubes with corks on the end, and we all LOVED getting to pick out/buy more in all sorts of colors.)
