Found Objects - What Is It???


Do you know what the heck 
this three-legged thingy is?

I bought it yesterday for a buck 
at my fave little thrift store.


 It is rusty steel, and it has
a hook to hold something.

I wonder if it is something that was used 
to hold a little kettle over a ground fire?

Some of you (Lisa? Pat?)
know what all kinds of things are.

If you know, please enlighten me!

Word for the Day:
Luke 15:6
And when he comes home, 
he calls together his friends and his neighbors, 
saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, 
for I have found my sheep that was lost.’

  1. My neighbors have something similar in their yard. It holds a big black pot that they have filled with flowers. Not sure if that was its original purpose or not. Interesting thingy whatever it is!

  3. Revi, I don't know what it is, but it would look great with a lantern hanging from it. I am one of your newest followers. I love how you have a scripture with every post.

  4. No idea what it's for, but looks, as Debbie suggests, that it must hold a bowl of some type. For a buck, I would have made the purchase too!

  6. It's hard to say. It doesn't look very big in this picture. Do you think it's as old as it looks?
    I wonder...maybe it holds bananas? LOL... crazy I know. But that is the first thing that came to mind!

    Sorry...no help. I agree with Dawna though...a lantern would look cool. Oh, you could wrap it with chicken wire and make a cloche...
    Ok...I'm going now. If I think of something...I'll come back.
    I'm trying to be helpful can you tell?

  10. It might have held a bell or gong at one time, that was hit with something to call people to dinner. It doesn't look big enough for a cooking pot, but maybe that's just the picture and that was its original purpose.

  11. I have seen these for sale before. You are to put it over a campfire with a handled pot to heat beans, etc.

  12. It is just like you thought, put a cast iron pot with a handle on it and put it over an open flame fire to heat beans in.
