Beverage servers (4)
I believe the answer is:
urns
'beverage servers' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for urns that I've seen before include "Runs to get funeral vases" , "Large pots for tea" , "Containers for ashes" , "Runs to get large vases" , "Large containers for tea" .)
