THIS IS A CLASSIC EARLY 20TH CENTURY Christmas FEATHER TREE STAND. All German trees were table top and NOT floor standing trees. Feather trees (made of goose feathers on a wood and wire frame) were very popular among the thrifty Germans because they didn\'t have to be purchased every year, you bought a feather tree and used it decade after decade, saving money and the trouble of purchasing a live tree.
