Not Sure of Material

 Nestle and Logo of a face with a radiating head dress on each side of the rectangular shaped handle.   Not sure of the function of the “U” shaped object on the end of the handle.  It may have been used to open the cap on the Nestle Coca cans.  There are no indications the bottom pick had the “U” shaped item on the end of the handle.
