Name that Thing~

That's what the wife thought it was, because of the metal dish type things on the bottom!!

What metal dish?

If the top isn't original an umbrella stand is an option.

I'm with Neb on umbrella stand, the drip cups at the bottom.

This has always been a fun thread!! So, I found this shoved way in the back of a cabinet in the utility room!! Not sure if I'm keeping it or not! Anyone ever use one??

No Dw went to a steamer, so I followed.

This is an odd piece in a house I clean! The couple got it an auction, they have no idea what it is! They have a plant on top of it. Anyone ever see anything like this before??

It’s a Victorian plant stand. Beautiful. I don’t know famous names of furniture makers from the time period. It might be worth sending a pix to a qualified appraiser.
