    Not sure about anything on this item. Looks like maybe it hooks on a clothes rod. It's brass, spins. Thought maybe to hang jewelry on in wardrobe??? I really don't know

    Looks right but then, how does the other end work? Do the four points just hook under wires in the birdcage?

    komokwa, that makes better sense but this gismo doesn't look that strong.

    Welcome! I am wondering if your gismo may be a clothes dryer. For nylons, and unmentionables, etc. There used to be wooden ones of rather similar construction.

    If the legs are a little bit springy, so they could be pressed slightly inward & would then bounce back, I'm for bird cage hanger.
