My guess would be a serving dish holder. I like it too!

Nice - Hope you can find some use for this.
I have something similar and it has 2 ceramic dishes that fit in the slots and can be used for condiments, hors d'oeuvres or candies.

There may be something this rack was made for but you may find a new use.

It looks like a serving dish that would have held 2 (possibly glass) serving dishes. When I find mystery items at thrift stores, my theory is that once I buy it, it can be anything I want it to be. I'm sure you can find some creative uses for this item.

How big is it? The photo does not give an indication of the size.

The guesses about a casserole dish holder was my first thought, then I saw the one about fire place logs. Either could be, depending on the size.

I've seen these at wedding where people put dishes in them to serve food on the table. They normally have some glass dishes that sit inside of them. Now the dishes are gone you can use it for other things like storing logs near a fireplace. Normally log holders are much rounder and higher on the sides.

my first thought was it looks like bamboo/ golden. the other thought it also reminds me of a dog or cat bed frame. like put the pad on it and you have a bed for a king or queen.

but that said the 2 place where people said the casserole dishes would go kinda puts the bed out.

My first instinct is to say a log or a luggage holder. I find it interesting that the bars are so far apart which means whatever it's supposed to hold to be long and thus not liable to fall thru the cracks. The shape that goes up slightly is interesting to me as well. Whatever it holds has a rounded shape.
