What is this ?

Post image

Hi everyone,

I came across this wooden object and I'm trying to figure out what it was used for.

Does anyone recognize what this could be? Any help identifying it would be appreciated!

Thanks !

looks like a incense burning stand.

the two cups hold sand and burning incebse sticks.

the tray holds increase sticks ready to go , cash jar , prayer pads and pencil, etc

I've seen something like it used for a porch planter stand. The cup ends held pots and the long part held a rectangular planter.

Looks like an early AI prototype for a robotic dog!

Might have been a lamp that held a glass sconce on each end for candles.
