...can I make stuff up?

Maybe could be used like a wrench tool. A cylindrical object could be put inside the circle, and the legs sqeezed as you twist the tool to remove the object from a device.

That part does look familiar, but I didn't immediately associate it with vaping. It looks more like a restrictive pin.

That's a whatchamajig used in conjunction with a thingy.

If I had to take a guess, I'd say it looks like a broken atomizer wrench of some kind. The area past the curved part looks like it's broken, but usually there is some sort of a grip so you don't scratch your atomizer on the curved side. Judging by the slight reverse curve at the very end, whatever it was was bent the opposite direction. It might be similar to something like this:

However, I do tend to agree with Baditude. Since there's no grips, or handles, It seems to resemble that shape only. I don't see how that would be usefull, or it is a poor design.

Non vape related, it looks like a retention clip for a Faucet or something with a similar design... those look more like this:

Again, it would still be broken.

Never seen anything like that for vaping tools.
Agree that it looks like a clip for something tho
Put a quarter next to it and re-take the pic for size

 

[classwife]

...and what led you to believe it's an e-cig part ?

 

[untar]

How do you even know it's vape related?

I'd say it's a standard pair of chinese made pliers

Are you sure that's a vaping part? Where did you find it and what mod do you think it belongs to? That might help with identification, although I have to be honest, I really haven't ever run across something that looked like that connected to a vape, although I suppose it's possible. Did someone give it to you, or you found it in your vape stash, or what?

Scale is a major factor here. We don’t know how big it is. I’ve seen jar wrenches that look just like that. They were rubber covered and hinged at the end. Thing is they were a good 7 inches long or more.

Animal, vegetable or mineral?

Seriously, drip tip removal tool…is how one such object was referred to in a kit I got. I laughed it off a the time and I've been looking for it ever since.

Good luck.

That... is a Smoking Cessation Device. You put the Round End over your Pinky Finger. And then wear it when you are in places where you Can't Vape.

And if you get Overwhelming cravings for a Cigarette, you tap the person next to you on their shoulder and ask them...

"Can you Please Squeeze this as Hard as You Can?"

Welcome and glad you joined.
That's what you call a Retaining Clip. You may find at most fastener stores. Take it in along with what it retained and someone behind the desk will help you out.
Could fill in your location, it may help you in obtaining location specific information to your questions (Here it would have helped).
On the top right hand corner of this post you will find --"your name" next to "Inbox and Alerts"
Place the mouse pointer on your name. You will get a drop down and on the left hand side of this drop down you will find "Personal Details".
Click Personal Details.
In Personal Details, in middle of screen in gray, you will find "Location" Could fill that box line in.

My guess is it's an arm chair.
I tend to sit in mine.
