The stand is a dark brown wood with a polished finish and a sculptural, curved design featuring a group of several sinuous legs that curl at the ends, creating small rounded feet; the wood displays warm brown and reddish-brown hues. The background is a uniform light gray, and the bowl and stand cast soft reflections on a glossy surface beneath them.
