ABSTRACT:
A vessel comprises a basin component and a base component, the base component having at least three support elements of substantially equal size and joined together by at least three connector elements of substantially equal length; at one end, each connector element is attached to one of the support elements, and the connector elements are joined to one another at their respective opposite ends. When the support elements of the base component are placed on a table or counter or other flat surface, and are positioned at equidistant points about the periphery of an imaginary circle having a radius that is substantially the same as the length of each connector element, and a basin component having a radius of curvature that is within certain limits is positioned on the base component, thereby placing the base component in tension, the formation of a stable support for the basin component is enabled.
