Delta Crateris (δ Crt, δ Crateris; traditional name: Labrum) is a solitary[9] star in the southern constellation of Crater. With an apparent visual magnitude of 3.56,[2] it is the brightest star[10] in this rather dim constellation. It has an annual parallax shift of 17.56[1] mas as measured from Earth, indicating Delta Crateris lies at a distance of 163 ± 4 light years from the Sun.

This is an evolved orange-hued giant star belonging to the spectral class K0 III. Delta Crateris is a member of the so-called red clump, indicating that it is generating energy through the thermonuclear fusion of helium at its core.[5] The star has an estimated 1.56[6] times the mass of the Sun but has expanded to 22.44±0.28[7] times the Sun's radius.

The metallicity of the star – what astronomers term the abundance of elements other than hydrogen and helium – is only 33% that of the Sun.[2] It is around 2.89[6] billion years old with a rotation rate that is too small to measure; the projected rotational velocity is 0.0 km/s.[3] Delta Crateris is radiating 171.4±9.0 as much luminosity as the Sun from its outer envelope at an effective temperature of 4,510±15 K.[6]
