Could it be a bed frame or even a window insert?

Its is most possibly a frame of some sort, but I believe its too small for a bed.

Height 1 cm
Width 4,5 cm
Lenght 6,5 cm

It has Christmas red color, and yes the "legs" are quite delicate and designed look to them. Is it possible they could belong to the rosa victorian series?

Found it!
It is a roof-rack, for a windsurf board, from set 3584 (which you have in your collection, JensL!). It isn't in the PlaymoDB, but it is shown at Datenbank-Setinhalt on klickywelt.de ( here if you have membership of the site). Also found a picture here and another one here thanks to Google images.

I haven't got the rest of this set :(
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)

Thank you! Now that you said it out loud I remember that too :)

I have to try it on some of the cars when I get home with the windsurf.

I didn't know it either... very satisfying to see a mystery piece identified  8-) Thanks Graham!
