🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Big Brassy Victorian Thing

[bottlecap4u]

Found at an 1840s Homestead. Its solid brass, heavy, has pully-like rollers on either end, still work. Maybe used for sashes/curtains or chains for a clock? Appears Victorian in its look.

I thought this looked like it could be a part of a hanging light fixture so I made a stab at it - and something came up that looks like the same design. Take a look!
