Description

Large, decorative iron rack. It is a trapezoid shape, with iron slats that meet and are coiled into two spirals on the shorter side, either side of the handle. Spiral and love-heart shaped motifs also adorn the slats. The handle is flat, with a rounded section for holding and a round knob at the end. There are three feet - one in each corner of the wider end of the rack, and one on the back of the handle.
