Wig stand or…

The stoneware object to the right is from Museum Delligsen and it’s filed as a 19th century wig stand. The dating is 1831 and it’s 24,1 cm tall.
The object to the left is my replica, currently for sale on the stock page. 
The Delftware object with a round head below (c. 1680 – c. 1690, 25 cm tall) is from the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The sign in the museum says: “Objects such as this were formerly called wig stands. However, as they occur in many different shapes and sizes, they were most likely not actually used for wigs. They may simply have been decorative objects without a specific purpose.” The other Delftware object with a truncated octahedron-shape on top is only 14.9 cm tall (c. 1685 – c. 1690, also from the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam). That one is obviously not the best place to put your wig. 
What do you think: is the stoneware object from Museum Delligsen a wig stand or not?
