What's this

[Dogtrousers]

I just found this on the floor. It's about 10mm at its widest.
Its sort of familiar but I can't place it. Could it be something to do with my bike.

I'm pretty certain it's one of these, only upside down.

It's the type of clip which is used to hold furniture; i.e. a bed / sofa together rather than a bike.

So, which piece of furniture is about to fall to bits? I'll be extra careful when I sit down.

If it's the bed that depends on how much wriggly-bouncy you do as the two halves will drift apart leaving a gap in the middle to fall into.

If it's the sofa the two ends will stretch, again leaving a middle gap and the crumbs below - if not regularly cleaned underneath - will be visible.

That's a racking clip. Maybe.

My mam had a handbag full of those in the 60's it a clip round the ear.

It is a cheaply made french toast rack.

It's a cubist paper clip.

Designed to slide over a flat surface like a shelf and hold something below it. Looks like it’s snapped.
