    Where are you from? Where did you get it? We still use these in modern Danish Christmas tree decoration.

      I am so curious as to how these go on a tree

      Edit; if anyone can give me a name so I can Google it, I’d appreciate it!

        Google: Georg Jensen lysholdersæt.

        Put a candle into the curly spiral thingy on top, and use the hook under it to put it on a branch of a dead, dry Christmas tree. Put around 20 of these on your tree and dance around it, knocking into the candles once in a while.

        Not a real Danish Christmas without a lil fire hazard.

      Spain and my grandma took it somewhere she barely remembers, she thought she took it from a cocktail which does not make any sense

        It would actually make a weird kinda sense.

        If you’re not familliar with traditional Danish fire-hazards this “cola de gallo” would be a great stirrer for long drinks. You could rest the hook on the rim to keep it from falling into the drink and put gsrnish in the spiral.

          now, knowing that it is not for drinks, she thinks she bought it as a souvenir while traveling but she forgot about it an thought it was for drinks

        You could place it in the garden orange tree and put a candle on it for evening sit-arounds. Y luego tienes el “hygge” danés.

        Maybe she got drunk and put into her drink herself haha. It did also surprise me that there was only one as well? Usually we have 4-12 pieces.
