Description
German Painted Iron Christmas Tree Stand with Cherub Form Supports, Late 19th Century
Cast mark 'D.G.M. SCH.' 'Pat. i Ausl'
9 1/2 x 11 x 11 in. (overall), the aperture 1 7/8 in. diam. (the interior).
Note: The model lacks a water reservoir as the tradition at the time was to harvest the tree December 24th to decorate and was taken down shortly after new year. Feather trees, the forerunner to artificial trees were also popular at this time and used in stands like this one. This stand has an unusual wrench mechanism to base.
