Can also be used to repair divots or as a ball marker.

It looks like something from H.P. Lovecraft.

I’m no expert in these sort of thing, but if I had to guess what it was, a women figurine is pretty low on my list. I would guess it is some sort of tool used for yarn or twine for making clothing.

While I admit to still loving that hypnotizing twirl... I feel I must point out that it is severely off-balance. Just a twopence-bit.

I’m thinking it’s much more utilitarian, like a rope tensioner or some such thing.
