Mystery picture

Hi

Does anyone know what this object is?

I'm doing an annoying "find out using the internet" work quiz. I figure you're all on the internet so it's ok!

cheers

'Something' from a bike, is my guess...

I think it's an outdoor object, the drop of water suggests dew or rain perhaps. I think it's man-made and probably cast iron. I'd suggest something like a window or gate latch, or maybe part of a garden bench or perhaps one of those old iron rollers for lawns. Anyone else got any ideas?

I thought of a bike, too, but it was only a loose association. I can't really think of a part of a bike which looks like that.

[EDIT] stoop'd, not stupid.

Does anybody know what this strange thing is?

I'd say gate latch as well.

Let us know if you find out.

[EDIT] Pearl Jam's No Code album had a load of this type of picture on the cover.

It's a old telephone handset that's been in a fire.

Thanks for having a look everyone. You've given me some more avenues to explore.

I'll let you know when I get the answer. 🙂
