About this work
Holder in the shape of a leaf with a quatrefoil as the ground plan, with a slight convexity within each circle to accommodate a barrel or shaker. The leaf is enclosed by a raised profiled rim. From the center of the leaf rises a tall column provided with profiled bands at the bottom and top, and just below them. The column is crowned by a standing ring on which a knob in the shape of a pine cone is placed.
