About this work
The object consists of two parts: the base and the stem riveted onto it. The base is cast and then provided with very narrow ribs during turning. It has a conical shape with a raised rim, which also allows it to serve as a drip pan. On the raised middle part, the stem is riveted. This has a round profiled knob in the center. Above this, the stem continues round, with a screw thread applied in the lower part above the knob.
