Can you Identify this copper item?

Made of copper. Found at early 1900s farmhouse. As you can see there are two holes on the side (or maybe top?). Thanks guys!

It’s also hollow almost like a pipe.

Holes only on one side?

Can we get a pic from the top with a modern coin to help judge the diameter of 'the pipe'? Smaller than your pinky finger?

It looks like a oil lamp wick tube, which had a double adjuster wheel
