The Mystery Object this week is a Washing Dolly.

It is a replica made of tin.

Before the washing machine came along, people used to work hard to clean their clothes in a big tub of water. The dolly was used to help them push the clothes around in the water and swish them around to get the dirt out - just like a modern washing machine does when the clothes spin around.
