Wooden Cobra Stand
This wooden tripod called "cobra" is usually used as a stand for abalone shells used in fumigation sessions. It is made from a single piece of cylindrical wood carved into three interlocking pieces that can unfold and close. It is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship and the result of a real skill.
Cobra holders are also often used to hold spherical objects such as minerals, crystal balls or small Tibetan singing bowls (or medinice bowls).
