AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent vintage mid-century magazine rack, an exquisite piece of Italian craftsmanship from the 1950s. This object represents the elegance of post-war European design, combining the robustness of iron with the delicacy of artisanal work.
The piece has been crafted in wrought iron and entirely hand-decorated with gold leaf, giving it a luminosity and depth that only precious metals can provide. Its hexagonal structure features a refined openwork decoration on the central panel, allowing the content to be viewed subtly.
The design is completed with twisted ironwork details (shaped like a rope) that run along the edges and culminate in an elegant central motif of a knot with tassels, adding a neoclassical and sophisticated air.
Origin: Italy.
Era: Circa 1950.
Technique: Hand-forged wrought iron, gold leaf application.
Style: Mid-Century Modern / Hollywood Regency.
Excellent vintage condition, preserving its authentic original patina.
