    DescriptionA blackened metal base stand made of strips .75" to 1" thick. Two verticle circles to hold the vase. The top circle is larger than the other circle 10" below it. Holding these two circles are four legs. They spiral inward at the upper circle and then curve out and back to where they are bolted to the lower circle. They then curve back out to the ground. Each leg has two feet-one that spirals up and one that spirals down.
