This is a tool used for making smoke when harvesting honey in order to drive bees away. A bee smoker is composed of a cylindrical tin can connected to the bellows. It is designed to feed charcoal into the lower section of the tin can and mugwort into the upper section. Smoke would rise from the mouth when the bellows are blown by hand.
