Nearly No One Recognizes This Antique Tool. Are You One Of The Few That Actually Know What It Is?

Recently, we came across this image and were completely stumped. What in the world could it be?

The image circulated around the All Cute offices while we considered all of the different uses for what seemed like a very regular tree branch.

After a day of wondering what in the world it could be used for, we were finally given the answer!

This branch was used for a practice stemming back all the way to the 1500s. TheIf you aren’t familiar with the term Water Dowsing or the dowsing tool itself, perhaps you know it by one of its other names: a diviner, doodlebug, well witch, or water-finder.
