I also picked up a number of small, wooden, butter-knife-like items for dishing up spreads, and a small copper saucepan on three legs (way cool).  She had, however, something I didn't recognize: several items that could only be described as de-barked twigs, about five inches long, a little over 1/16" in diameter, and tapered at one end, the tapered end being warped or even curled a bit.  She had them sorted and tied in bundles of a dozen each, and were in the tray with her serving spoons.  Does anyone know what they are?

I thought those were whisks for whipping eggs or cream.
