    The final item looks like a T-top chimney pot. The are used to prevent down-drafts filling the room with smoke and cold air. Also they can reduce the amount of rainwater that enters the chimney.

    I've watched several documentary series in which historians and archaeologists spend a year living in various eras, like the Victorian and Edwardian periods. As a result, I was able to deduce the purpose of the laundry tongs.
    I recognized the Pioneer plaque right away. It's launch in the 1970s was a major event, as one can imagine, and the plaque's design was spread widely in the media.

  • @joemack1965

    My Nan had those tongs when i was little. She gave them to my Mom who was complaining that she struggled to get to the bottom of her new Hotpoint top loading washing machine. We live in the UK and most of us have the washing machine in the kitchen. We moved to a house with a kitchen that the machine wouldn't fit in in the early 80's. We sold the hotpoint and gave the buyer the tongs. She spent the next 20+ years complaining about how the toploader was so much better, and that her back hurt using the new frontloader lol

    The unknown belt buckle displays a replica of the plaque on the 1st Voyager space explorer. It also carried a recording of greetings in various languages as well as the Brandenburg Concerto. The plaque was intended to communicate in pictures what the senders (humans) looked like, the location of earth in our solar system along the bottom. I don't recall the meanings of the other symbols are but it could easily be looked up.

    My mother used a long hardwood stick to dip clothing and other garments from a washer/ wringer machine instead of those tongs ( I should know as I wad my bottom paddled by it numerous times when I was a small child, it ALSO was very smooth and shiny, and stung like CRAZY, I think most people used long sticks as those tongs were the first I have ever seen!!!
