Place card holder. I also think you could fashion this into a Christmas ornament or, with more, eccentric earrings.

“In the 1940s, NOSCO produced some of its first non-organ items in the molded plastic figures by New York designer Don Manning. They were stylistic pre-war art deco versions of animals such as camels, deer, dogs, elephants, giraffes, horses. Many are marked "USA.” Smaller, roughly 2" versions of some designs were sold as tchotchkes and as bar drink markers.”
