It started as one of those small, curious moments that seem insignificant at first but quietly pull you into the past. While helping tidy up at an in-law’s home, someone noticed an odd object tucked among the butter dishes and serving pieces. It was made of clear glass, smooth and symmetrical, shaped almost like a tiny dumbbell. It didn’t resemble any modern kitchen tool, nor did it match anything commonly found in today’s homes. No one in the room knew what it was, yet it clearly looked intentional, not decorative clutter or broken glassware.
