Stand; open above and below. Spreading concave profile with moulded rim and base; the rim flat on top. Well made of heavy light-red household ware, red to buff surfacing. On the underside a few splashes of red and black glaze.
The glaze splashes might suggest that this stand was made not for domestic use but possibly for a pottery works, to hold large vases during some stage of their manufacture or decoration.
