    Abstract: The present invention discloses a pot stand 10 having a frusto-conical primary region 14 open and sized to receive and support a pot 12. The primary region 14 has a generally skeletal structure for substantially surrounding an exterior surface of the pot 12 and restraining the pot 12 from lateral movement. The skeletal structure also provides a view to the pot 12 through the stand 10 and includes decorative indicia 16 for imbuing an ornamental perspective to the pot 12. A generally planar base 18 extends from the primary region 14 for supporting a bottom surface of the pot 12 and creating a space between the pot 12 and the underlying support surface.
