    That is pretty clever analysis, but the loop is actually the handle.

    It is not a magnet or a toy.

    Is it some sort of spreader? Maybe you put fertilizer or something in it and shook it and it would spread a little around at a time.

    That is not its purpose, although it would probably work for that.
