An article support for a surface, the support including a base having a first end portion and a second end portion, the base first end portion is adjacent to the surface. A reservoir is disposed within the second end portion, the reservoir having a terminating margin periphery forming an aperture. An omni-directional substantially planar extension originating at the margin periphery and outwardly terminating in an outer perimeter, the planar extension has a segmented primary surface and a secondary surface wherein the secondary surface faces the first end portion. A portion of the primary surface is formed from an inverted equilateral square pyramid wherein an apex of the pyramid is disposed within the aperture. Operationally, the article is placed upon the primary surface, the article having a plurality of point contacts upon the primary surface causing the article to clear the margin periphery for drainage from the article into the reservoir.
