My husband says they look like the things that hold beakers over a flame. Like in chemistry class.

I believe they are....
holders for beakers, flasks and test tubes. They hold them in place over the bunsen burner's flame. Haven't seen those since chemistry class in college.
Hope this helps.

Sounds like a good call Julie, Now that you've mentioned it, I've seen what your husband is talking about years ago in chemistry class, just not rusted, they clamp to an upright!

Thanks all
Thank you all for the info, they never let me near the chemistry class or fire for that matter, so I would never have figured them out without your help. Thanks .......Jack

As a PhD chemist, I can testify that you are all correct... no organic chem lab would be complete without such clamps! Interesting estate purchase...
