I found this hanging from the basement rafters of my 100 year old house. It appears to be two marbles or something similar in a hanger of some sort. Any one have a clue what this could be?” Flrst c.o.m.m.e.n.t.

 

Exploring an old house can feel like stepping into a mystery novel. And that’s exactly what happened when someone discovered a small, strange object dangling from the basement rafters of their 100-year-old home.

The Bottom Line

Finding mysterious objects in a 100-year-old house is like uncovering a secret from the past. It could be practical, playful, or even superstitious — but the curiosity it sparks is timeless.

So if you ever come across marbles hanging from the rafters, don’t just toss them aside. Snap a photo, investigate, and share the discovery. You might just uncover a tiny piece of history.
