Very similar in basic form to bronze fibula, cloak pin, at British Museum...albeit with pin tip broken off....

Safety pin.

Reminds me of one of my Chinese history classes in college, when we looked at a photograph of an ancient bronze object of “purpose uncertain” and ten Texans said, “Boot-scraper!”

Nice. Likely there were numerous variations based on that design.
