Abstract: A display stand for displaying spherical articles, which when displayed with golf balls has the appearance of a spheroid with dimples thereon. The upper section of the stand includes generally circular support plates of varying diameters arranged in a stacked fashion one atop the other, and separated by centrally positioned generally tee-shaped spacing elements. The plates include generally C-shaped cut-out recesses cut into the peripheral edge thereof for receiving and holding golf balls therein. A light bulb may be positioned atop the top most spacing element or, alternatively, a fluorescent light tube may be positioned within the central support shaft, for lighting the display stand.
