Japanese Buddhist Altar Incense Sifter/Strainer
This is a vintage Japanese incense ash sifter/strainer (haikoshi or haifurui) made of metal with a gold color in the shape of a small scoop. It is a cleaning tool used primarily to separate remaining pieces of incense sticks and other debris from ash and sand/other holding material in incense burners (koro) used in Buddhist temples, in home shrines (butsudan), or at graves.
