... there once was a star ★
This is a rather simple vintage kitchen tool. As far as we know it was used as some kind of hand mixer / whisk / frother (you rolled the stick between your hands to move/rotate the 4 cm wide 'star'). It belonged to my husband's gran, but he can't remember that she ever used it - so it might have be some family heirloom of hers
It's the only vintage technology I found here at our flat except for the more common vintage photography equipment (analogue bodys, lenses, exposure/light meter) and cassettes / records / turntable : ))

Edit: Found something similar still for sale in India:
