Scope note
Vaselike forms which are often made of glass but sometimes made of wood or bone and intended to hold spills, small pieces of wood or twisted paper used to light a fire. They resemble celery glasses in form although they were not intended for use on the dining table, but rather near a fireplace, oil lamp, or similar lighting device. For similar vaselike forms typically made of glass and used on the dining table for serving celery, use "celery glasses." For vaselike forms with a scalloped rim and used on the dining table for holding spoons, use "spoon holders."
