Original Note:
These are called Port Tongs and are heated before clamping onto the bottle. After clamping the bottle with the hot tongs, water is spritzed onto the neck of the bottle to temperature shock the glass. This is done to keep rotted cork out of your vintage wine or for presentation. https://www.tastingtable.com/1254043/what-are-port-tongs-how-to-use/
