The wire stand of the present invention includes an upper rim of wire steel in a substantially rectangular configuration, a lower rim of wire steel of similar configuration and a plurality of wire legs affixed at one end thereof to the upper rim and affixed to the lower rim such that the upper rim and lower rim lie in substantial parallel alignment to one another with the wire legs extending below the lower rim to maintain the lower rim a fixed distance above the support upon which the stand is placed. Each wire leg includes an offset for forming a substantially horizontal displacement of the wire leg relative to its point of attachment to the upper rim so that the wire legs of one wire stand can readily nest within another wire stand without significant wedging.

[ What I claim is:] [1.] A wire chafing stand comprising an upper rim of wire metal which forms a closed geometrical configuration circumscribing a first surface area, a lower rim of wire metal having a geometry substantially identical to the upper rim and circumscribing a second surface area with said first surface area being larger than said second surface area, a plurality of wire legs affixed at one end thereof to the upper rim and affixed to the lower rim at a substantially equal location approximate the opposite end thereof such that the upper rim and lower rim lie in substantial parallel alignment to one another with the wire legs extending an equal distance below the lower rim at each opposite end thereof and with each wire leg having an offset located adjacent the upper end thereof representing a lateral displacement of each leg relative to the point of attachment of said leg with the upper rim of the stand so that the wire legs of one wire stand can substantially nest within another wire stand without significant wedging wherein each wire leg is composed of two sides extending from a substantially level base with each side affixed at one end thereof to the upper rim and affixed at a location adjacent the opposite end to the lower rim such that the base extends from the lower rim to maintain the lower rim a fixed height above a support level upon which the stand is to rest.
