@futurebird juicer for cylindrical lemons
Nope.

@futurebird That’s clearly a mould for making fezzes for rabbits.
Oh no. Game over. Wow.

@futurebird I’m also getting tea vibes from this pic (or maybe im just suggestible). Are they for tamping down loose leaf in an infuser? Is that a thing? I thought usually tea wants to be floating around but idk

Not for tamping down leaves and no one would want that. That's coffee people stuff... the "tamping" (and boy do they get into it... sheeesh)

Nope.

@futurebird @eseubert Obviously a donut holder in that case
Nope. And I find the notion of such punny donuts deeply disturbing.

Uhhhh.

One of the better answers that still is not a correct answer.

@futurebird do you put upside down tea-ware onto it?

You aren't the first person to get this correct, but you are correct! And this has gone on long enough I think. Yixing clay teapots are these well-loved objects for tea heads. Ideally you use them often to brew the same tea, but it's important to dry the pot and lid between uses. These little stands are the perfect size for a teapot and the lid placed upside down to dry between uses.
Yixingwares should not be washed with soap generally, just with boiling water.

I gave this to my husband and he said "at last" since it solves a real problem if you drink tea everyday: the pot never dries enough sitting on a little cloth upside down. This is much better.
But, then I had to think about what someone who discovered this object in NYC out of context in some horrible horde of objects from the ruins of the city might think in 2000 years? Would they ever work it out?

@futurebird Your tea service remains very much more fancy than my tea service.

There are many ways to do the tea, but maybe someday the fancy life will tempt you. It's a lot of fun.

Love the glazing patterns. Have to wonder what is the process. Carefully painted or some kind of natural crystal/chemical reaction?
