      I’m no expert but the loop indicates it hung from something. At first I thought it might have been a toothpick that would hang from a man’s vest chain as a watch fob would hang.....but the tip looks too rounded for a toothpick.
      My second thought is that it was part of a ladies’ sewing chantelain. In sewing, when an item such as a collar or pocket flap needs to be turned, an item such as that is needed to push the fabric so you get a nice point on the collar (or lapel, or flap)....it could also be handy when turning belt loops or button loops.
      If you research antique sewing chantelains, you might find an example of a complete chantelain with many other sewing accoutrements.
      Good luck!
      When you find your answer, please update us!!
      I love the little ‘chicken head thing’.
