Another I don't know what it is so I'll call it a lace bobbin on Ebay. Bone,
turned, around three and a half inches long with a hollow centre. Any ideas?
My first though was to wind yardage as it's worked, but that would be straight
across the middle and not dip in.
It says it has a hollow centre, so one must be able to open it: a needle
case?

In my opinion it isn't a bobbin. I saw once a similar thing which was a needle

I think it's a bead. One of those long beads from when they used to cover doors
with beaded curtains (very popular in the 60s)
The thin raised bands don't seem to spiral - they seem to be separate
decorative elements.
It could be turned animal bone but it could also be

The title does say lace bobbin. The word lace is missing from the description.
I thought needle case, but with no ends, needles would fall out.

Rollers for lace don't usually dip in the middle.

Oh, wait - a curtain pull! You know, that handle that hangs on the end of the
cord that draws your curtains. The rings provide traction in your hand, you can
pull with your fingers wrapped around the smooth middle section. I see the

My first thought was that it's a needle case. I have something similar in wood
which dates back to the 1980s or 1990s and would have been bought from one of
