Found in an old house in France....
Some sort of multi purpose bottle opener?
Looks a bit like a door handle although scale is hard to tell.
some kind of scale for context would help. I wonder if some sort of tin opener (paint tin type)?
Got to be for lifting something. Detachable saucepan handle?
Looking at the finishing I don't think it's particularly old.
circular table?
After my journey to finding a bizarrely obscure stopcock key I'd say it is one of them.
A doofer for lifting the ash can out of a wood-burning stove?
Oh and 12 of them were found in the same location
The hexagon patterns in the wood are around the size of a coaster if that helps
Super heavy duty curtain hook
Some sort of a modular bracket for a wireframe based shelf?
Daddy tool and Mummy tool in the process of making lots of baby tools?
The hexagon patterns in the wood are around the size of a coaster if that helps
Not really. There's only cubes.
I'd guess a window handle of some sort.

It's a confiture jar seal

Possibly a manhole lifter-upperer?

Candle holders?

Double entendre or mis-translation?
It’s probably a tool for something campagnolo😂
Tbh, I’m with db on the candleholder.
I don’t think it’s a baby Robin.
Just tried Google Lens, got lots of blacksmith tools, dentists tools, even a nasal speculum!
Nothing that actually resembles that object. I’m wondering if it’s some sort of tile spacer, or for wood siding or similar?
No clue, otherwise. 🤷🏼♂️
On second thoughts, it looks like a crafty way to seat tubeless tyres.
Looks like, as mentioned, a knife rest. Porte couteaux … ‘specially as there’s a dozen of them 😁
If a knife rester is it orientated the right way in the photo?

It would seem odd to mount them on the wall bedside the table. I can't see how it's fixed though so guess it's the photo that's wrong way up.
I'm guessing the little round recess should take a salt pot or similar.
