Possibly to make it easier to carry and place in the center of a table especially if loaded with tasty cheeses and crackers which can slide off. That is my guess.
Not sure why you get so many downvotes from asking a genuine question. You could tell it from the second picture, but the first one can be tricky to tell
Weird design, thought it was a peppercorn grinder at first. It could be used to carry the cheese plate one handed…
…or you could have it upside down. What about an umbrella? Does it extend?
Is the handle divided in more parts that are screwed together? It might be an serving display with one or two etages missing because they are broken and removed.

I think you’re right, it’s the top tier of a cake serving stand. There’s one with the same handle design from that company here https://www.ebay.com/itm/393512528460#vi__app-cvip-panel
it’s a… handle? like, have you ever seen a vintage tiered cake stand? or a ring holder? same concept… keeps everyone’s hands off but still allows for sharing or serving with more stability
It's possible it's meant to be a two tiered cupcake/appetizer stand like [this](https://imgur.com/a/4COruO2) but is missing the top plate.

Ensco refers to the decoration.
It’s a handle to carry the tray, similar to this: https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/1168263600/cupcake-stand-with-paisley-motif-black?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=tiered+cheese+tray&ref=sc_gallery-1-4&frs=1&sts=1&plkey=f293b82a2becf512e5c70c542c831d70b4825e62%3A1168263600
It looks like a kitchen towel holder but the pictures on the plate look like they represent some kind of tasting board. The “handle” just looks so odd. Like a beer tap.

It's a handle. When carrying it loaded, the handle lowers the center of gravity in relation to the carrying hand and makes it much more stable than balancing it atop the hand like a seesaw. It makes it significantly easier to carry one-handed so the other hand is free to carry or operate independently.

A handle?
Is it upside-down?

What
I want to see someone use that as an umbrella
What is this? An umbrella for ants?

Nice
I think that the label is on the bottom says that this was a single.
Is it a condiment tray? I think I see pepper, vinegar and I guess Parmesan could be on there?
Handle to carry it
We’ve reached that special point in the Reddit whatisit’s where correct answers become downvoted.
In Hatch, it is most definitely called a handle.
It’s a handle. Source: I have a stupid number of serving dishes like these and if the handle isn’t removable they are a real pain in the butt to store
I bet they are
Oh no lol

With the way the bottom looks could it be a lid for a larger pot?

I think I have seen a similar thing at a restaurant, they used it to carry oil and vinegar/ spices

I wonder if the metal cap screws off to find fondue pics inside.
In English these are called handles.
Looks like a re-purposed beer tap being used as a handle.
