What's It?????


I think I know what it is, Do you?
What's your guess?


I know what it is now

Fruit bowl and snack corral

Have a great weekend.

Update: I agree with Whistle Stop and Garden Antqs, I think it is the bottom rack of an old dishwasher. When I picked it up at the estate sale the seller didn't even know what it was. When I told them it was like a light bulb went off.
My re-purpose
The center portion (for silverware) is perfect for snack bars and the nutcracker.
I pulled out some semicircular pieces from a relish tray I have, and they work great for nuts. And the raisin and almond containers tuck right in. Of course fresh fruit and avocados have there place in there as well. The open wires and raised bottom are perfect for air circulation for the fruit. All this stuff was such a clutter on my counter, and my DH wanted it out and easy to get to. Now it's all neat and tidy. I think this is a keeper for me.

I wasn't sure but I bet Garden Place Design is right that it's a fan cover. Neat piece!

I believe it is a dish drain just like whistle stop said. It is cool!

When I saw it I definately thought FAN cover but after reading your post about the dish thing, I don't know.....well, I still kinda think it's a fan thing-y!

It's the front of an electric fan.

Or a serving dish. :)
