What goes inside the metal tray?

Most people put ordinary plastic plant pots straight into the zinc liner. It acts as a large saucer to catch the overflow when you water them. Historically, they often held damp sphagnum moss. You would pack the moss around the individual clay pots to keep the roots cool and humid.

I have a wooden plant stand but the metal insert is missing so I can't put soil in it, what is the best way to use it now?

You should never put soil directly into a wooden jardiniere anyway. They were always designed to hold separate pots rather than acting as planters themselves. Without the liner, just use a large waterproof saucer sitting on the wooden base. As long as it catches the drips, the timber will stay safe.

How heavy are ceramic jardinieres?

A large majolica jardiniere with its matching pedestal can easily weigh over thirty kilograms before you add any plants. They take quite a bit of effort to move around once situated.

My grandmother left me a tall mahogany plant stand with thin curved legs and I want to know if it can safely hold a heavy fern?

Tall Edwardian stands with splayed legs are easy to tip over. A heavy fern on top changes the centre of gravity and makes them unstable on deep carpets. Keep to smaller plants for the tall delicate ones. If you have a large fern, look for a low, wide model with a heavy base instead.
