Someone mentioned an old opium pipe
music mouth piece .??
IF it is in fact 'tubular' and maybe 4-6" long, the goldish colored end might be a 'mouthpiece' and the perforated part of it does somehow 'open up', I'd be inclined to agree with bobby725 and dgirardin. Sorry Looker, I'm not seeing it as any sort of mouthpiece for a musical instrument...?
It's a tea straw probably from India.
The tea idea is right. It’s a Bombilla Yerba Mate Straw.
It is a "bombilla" A metal straw for sipping Yerba Mate tea, typically from south America,
Here's a link with a description:
