Side piece of a stave rack, with two straight sides, narrowing towards one end. There is a series of curved shapes along the longest side. There is a rectangular slot at the narrowest end and two straight-sided lugs with holes in them at the widest end. The lugs are probably for attachment to the rest of the rack.
