Can you name that cooking utensil?

I was in Savannah recently and there is a store where you can buy kitchen stuff or even get a few lessons, and hanging in the store is this thing it has a long metal handle and what kind looks like i slinky at the end of it. Your supposed to guess what it is/what it's for and if you get it right you get a prize the only thing is when you get i wrong they still don't tell you what it is and thats really been bugging me. And just so you know its not a whisk.
