Does anyone have any idea what this is?

Does anybody have a clue what this could be it's too big to be a sock Darner...

 

Wig/hat stand? You don't say how big exactly.

 

um, you haven't seen MY feet...................

 

It's about 12 in tall the bottom of the base I'd say it's probably maybe 4 in wide the sphere is probably about 5 to 6 inches maybe?

 

Doh Forgot what we'd been missing.


Here is a similar one of slightly different size.

Mine either - says the woman wearing the size 13 sneakers.... I think this is actually a hangs-around-gathers-dust. Also suitable for whacking people about the head and shoulders if necessary.

 

I think its a decorative doo dad from the 80s.

 

Welcome to our forum Tricia!!

First of all ignore the man behind the curtain with the big feet. He is our lovable looney uncle that needs his meds.

Second of all, do you know what it is made of or could you describe the material. It could be just a do dad as Johnny has said, but it would make a great hat stand.

 

That layered bone thing going on with the ball very much reminds me of the 80's/Ralph Lauren look.Remember all the bone boxes,picture frames,etc ? Can we see the bottom?

 

A PAWN from a giant chess set?

 

Correction - He is looney BECAUSE of his meds.....................

Sorry Tricia............sometimes I just can't help myself....................and apparently no one else can either...............

 

My grandmother had a hope chest; I'm more the beyond hope type.

 

What is it made out of? Looks like stone or marble. Looks like the sphere is separate or has been attached, no?

 

I like the ideas of hat stand or wig stand.

 

I can't believe none of you know what this is.

It is a world Globe on a stand. That world being Jupiter

 

I think it's a wig and/or hat stand.

 

Boule porte-perruque.

 

I don't know what it says Anund but I'm pretending I do .. .. Joy.

 

google to find the answer..............
