Description

A small, foldable Koran stand from wood with open-work carved decorative elements. The contact face is provided with a latticed ornament from ball and bar forms. On the top there are leaf-shaped tips carved out. In between the feet of the stand that are carved with different indentations, the leaf-shaped ornament repeats in a similar form on both sides. The tip, however, points downwards.

The object is a purchase of the Gewerbemuseum (Museum of Applied Arts) Ulm from Julie Mathilde Theodora von Schneider.
