Lucked upon some Parker stuff.

Has anyone any idea how those parts go together to make an umbrella stand? I can see the larger piece being a base but it would need some form of upright support that would hold the umbrellas vertical. Most that I've seen were tallish basket like thingies. My grandparents had one in their farm house that they used for canes(one v cool one that had a sword inside it!) and umbrellas.

They were the pan at the bottom of the umbrella stand to collect the water running off the wet umbrella.
